Hi all......
Nice to finally get here..... Been watching this site for a while now, trying to learn a bit about these older bikes before buying one.
I recently got myself a 1951 A7 plunger. While it's still original, rideable and in good nick, i have to wait to get it registered before i can take it on the road. I don't think i'll bother restoring it yet. It's still quite nice the way it is....(will post a picture when i can work out how to get one to 600KB??)
I still have plenty of questions though, so i will start with this one.....
What is the pipe coming from the underside of the the oil tank for? It's a short bit of copper pipe that ends just above the chain. I think engine oil leaks from here on mine while the bike is stationary.
