1949 A7
« on: 19.06. 2009 19:23 »
Just a few lines to introduce myself and to show you my latest project which has just come my way.I come from Yorkshire you know flat caps and a whippet in the sidecar,
been renovating bikes for the last 9 years have completed T90 a T20 and a Comet
This latest project  looks a nice challenge its all complete and I think it has only had some Italian wheels in the past which are now shot.Any information on where to buy spares and parts lists would be most appreciated.This is my first posting and photo
so hopefully it will be seen by all or its back to the drawing board.

Hello mate... found your way here then!

Nice bike... almost exactly the same as mine and a number of other guys here. Seems these early A7s are surfacing quite frequently. Plenty of places to get parts although I have not had to obtain much for mine. Draganfly are good, Then there is C&D autos and of course SRM, but depends on what parts you'll be needing. Might be easy to just ask as there are alot of specialist dealers around.

Enjoy the forum!

Was this originally a Star Twin? It has the triangular toolbox and valanced front guard of that model.
