I've got a new project that looks like I'm going to be at for awhile. I apoligize ahead of time for the number of questions I'll be asking everyone.
1942 WLA engine. Nice frame, not positive of the year. How do I tell?
The stock bike has 18" wheels. This one has front: Goodyear 4.25-18T, rear is Continental MT90-16T
Question, for riding one up, what engine sprocket should I be running. It has none right now. With the different size wheels, seems like I might need a different amount of teeth on the engine sprocket. I weight 175 and will only be solo riding.
What is a good service/repair manual for this bike?
Tranny is a 3 speed with reverse. Do I use the 3 speed shift gate, or the servicar one? I guess if I park nose downhill, I get get back up. Reverse on a foot clutch, should be fun!
Cylinders are cast iron so I believe not original. Numbers on cylinders say 12036. 1936 year model maybe. I believe this bike should have aluminum heads.
