Hi wackyone,
Is this the same as a goldie or RGS one? Does your bike have the QD crinkle hub?
I have a new pattern one unpainted, as I bought a chrome one for my RGS project

Bit over priced that one though, think more like around £60 to £70ish, got mine (chrome) for £35 ish sometime ago from a local trader admittedly I bought a new tank at the same time so probably got a good price for the two.
I would phone a dealer or two
All the best - Bill
1961 Flash - stock, reliable, steady, fantastic for shopping
1959 Rocket Gold Flash - blinged and tarted up  would have seizure if taken to  Tesco

Hi Again,
Bill, The Autocycle engineering chainguard is a real headturner and a better made part you wont find *ex*
That's why I bought one *eek*
The curved part is not welded up but properly pressed from one piece!

wackyone, I will compare the 2 chainguards tomorrow, as they are stored away separately
Send me a PM if you are interested in the unpainted one?

Cheers

The RGS chain guard is the same but slightly different. It has a larger radius cut out around the brake drum.
