That's a beautiful puppy, Bob!

But I can't find those oil lines in the Spare Parts book.

No oil filter, and how did the radio get in the way?

Please tell me they are not upside-down.

PS: While we are on police machines, Folks, this pic is as late as I collect..

Bike in foreground has possible regulator mounting issues.

Here's another set of those weird oil lines, Folks!

Where's the oil filter mentioned in the parts book?
Or are they this kind of oil tank?

Good eye, good question Cotten. I'm sure someone knows. Must be oil tank nipple direction and height difference. I like different direction and height nipples!

Regulator mount is correct.

"But I can't find those oil lines in the Spare Parts book."
They are there if you look in the right place.
And pre '58 Police units did not use oil filters.

Regulator mount is correct.

Where does the 'top or back stud' mount to if horizontal? I thought the vertical mount in background photo was correct? Don't regulators mount on stud extensions off the coil? Background photo shows terminals to rear where foreground photo shows to the front if regulator was brought up vertical?

The mount in those years was totally independent of the coil, a self contained unit that bolts to the oil tank mount and a strap around the top frame rail. Here is the backside of one...now back to vintage pics...
