Hi! Just bought a bike powered by a James trials bike motor and I wonder about the gearbox(4), is there lower and higher gears or is it as a roadbike? 298 /4789 on engine, gearbox is V RBU 653? Hi, Can you tell me where I can locate any parts, reproduction, or good used, like cables, chain guard, grips, foot peg rubber.īikelinks lists sources for such parts: Bikelinks It is 955/18138D, please could tell me if this is a 3 speed 6E. The engine is not the original in this frame but I can't find the number in your list of Villiers engines.

the money will go to a shelter for the homeless veterans. we are going to rebuild this bike for an raffle. I need a carburetor exhaust system and spokes for the wheel.

It has a frame number of M 06063 D and a Villiers engine with a serial number at the front of 24686D - we are wanting to know what year, size & model this engine is please. Hi, I have a perhaps 1948 or 1949 ? rigid rear end James motorcycle. The engine is a Villiers 98cc 1F model similar to that used by Bown, Aberdale, Bond and others. Hi I have a James comet, the engine number is 797/32869 could you help me with finding out what type of engine it is? I am having difficulty getting the timing set on my 1939 JDL engine I have seen an electronic module (meca) can I fit one of these to a JDL? An help will be gratefully received. Its hard to see but i think engine number is 797a3430 Possibly something useful here: Engine Numbers and Frame Numbers My 1954 James J5 Cadet is on the Left side under the seat, while I am sitting on the Bike. The Previous Owner thought it was 122 cc ''But it is not'', it is a Bigger Motor than my J5 also has a Decompression valve. If I know 'Exactly' where I should be looking, I am going to use some Nail Polish remover, to expose the Numbers.

Question: Where is the Frame # ? Sadly the Previous Owner Painted it Black again, and he covered up the Frame # ''What I Believe'' to be is a 1948 British James Captain J8 with a 6E Motor 197 cc 3 Speed Transmission. Does anyone have any info on this engine regarding cc and what Mark it is. I have the Villiers engine and the following numbers are stamped on the engine : 230A37270D and the patent number is 531639.
