I have also noticed my mudguard does not have centre rib so it must be off something else . I would imagine getting a replacement will be like rocking horse 💩.
Are the Indian ones available any good would anyone know ?

   B and M Series plunger bikes share the same basic pressing, just with the addition of easily removed extra brackets. I did wonder if that guard started life on a Star Twin. Back in the day you could get new universal guards and cut and shut to fit. Probably still can now, but true time worn originality will cost.

   With the interest in old bikes, ebay, clearing out Grandad's Shed etc there is more choice than ever before. Used guards are a gamble, shot blasting anything composed of atoms loosely associated is bound to lead to mental anguish.

 Swarfy.
