I would appreciate the forums input on when the 1930 V series bikes changes from the bare nickel control coil 4143-28 to the braided cotton covered 4143-30. I am doing a later 1930 and am always aiming for as much authenticity / accuracy as possible.
I am after those that have seen their share of unrestored 30s bikes and someone who has both a 1930 and perhaps a 1931 parts book.
Ive read a fair amount on the subject and have several later years parts books which are not necessarily accurate as you may know.
For example the coupler we all know well 4142-30 shows in a 35 parts book as late 30 to 35 when in fact it came out in 1932 to my understanding.
And for some further fun please take a run at the control wire oiler (4141-30?) and when it came out as this, I believe, was on the bare nickel coil.
I have a later years one of these that fits the cotton covered control cable but this is not 30 - 31 V
The first 4143-30 out had the coupling with the oiler built in or was this optional on the first offering of the cotton covered 4143-30?
By 1932 this all becomes current and easy with the 4143-30 & 4142-30.
In short I seek wise council on the correct front brake control coil set up for a later 30 V
Thank-you
