Hi All,
Thats the difference between mere mortal A and B stuff and "Goldie RGS" stuff 
Search for the A65 hub and you may be lucky I got mine for £20 Ok that was 12 years ago but still!!!!
The same seller had the correct inner primary casing for a RGS, its different to the "normal" A and B ones
in that it extends more  rearwards towards the chain guard so as there isnt the unsightly gap betwen the 2, also no bolt hole!!
Guess who bought it ???? 
Ok now I have to sell a kidney to pay for it

Cheers

John,
            It's interesting that you mention the inner chain case.
If you look at the road test from November 1962, the bike tested had a "short" inner.
Also a 1/2 width front brake and "cigar" muffler.

Hi Trev,
Here is a pic of an RGS with the longer chainguard end on the inner primary case
The part number is 42-7503,
I think there is a similar looking one on Gold Stars with no bolt hole either, obviously different at the crankcase end!
Anyway I hope I havn't spent my money foolishly
I am by no means an expert on the foibies of RGS's
I'm just trying to get the correct bits for the bike build,
Its had a tough life in the hands of previous owners and there are a host of non RGS bits fitted, that said All the vitals are there!!
Cheers

the goldstar single has the longer chainguard but the inner is different in that it has a cutout for the mag platform.
