Kickstarter and Clutch - Model W21

I have a Douglas motorcycle 350cc, 2-cylinder Type W2 from 1920.This motorcycle has no kickstarter and clutch. It is very hard to drive on main-roads. The Model W21 (1921-23), one year later has a 3-speed-gear with clutch and kickstarter. Can you help me to find this gear?

Thanks in advance

Flywheel and clutch assembly - 1926 CW Douglas.

Can you help? I need a complete flywheel clutch assembly to suit a 1926 CW Douglas. Even parts to suit would assist. A kick start assembly is also needed for the same bike. Anything would be appreciated. Thanking you.

Gearbox/clutch unit for 1911 Douglas

Hi there! I'm looking for a gearbox/clutch unit for my 1911 Douglas. Starting with the 1911-model a 2-speed gear and clutch became available as an option. The gearbox became a standard issue in 1912, but because of the change to a SV-type engine this part is of a different model. The 1911 'box was bolted directly to the underside of the carter (instead of more backward to the frame as in the 1912 model). Anyone?

Information on Douglas engines

I have recently purchased three Douglas flat twin engines. I am in the process of restoring them however I am having difficulty in sourcing any information or engine rebuild diagrams. If you know where I can source this information or if you have any such information I would be EXTREMELY grateful if you could let me know.
The number on one of the engines is - FT35/1/2238. If you would even have any information on the year of this engine or what it was used for that would also be greatly appreciated.

Hand Controls Wanted

Hand carburetor and magneto control levers for my F-28 Douglas, see
"Small parts 1", "Hand controls". There is a magneto control in the LH
column, forth from bottom and one in RH column second from top. There is a
throttle/air control in the bottom row, third from left. Both should be
center stud mounting, not clip on type, to fit the through holes on the
handlebars of my F-28

Do You Recognise This Douglas?

Wanted - information and more pictures on the machine shown which appears to combine a special K/M model Douglas frame and a short stroke dirt track engine. Possibly an unsuccessful Works attempt for the Junior TT, later versions appear to have been used in the 1931 Scottish Six Days Trials.

Douglas Scale Model Wanted

I was wondering if anyone knows where I could get a scale model of a 1915 350cc Douglas. My grandfather rode one in WW1 in Baghdad and I would love to own a model of one ( as the money for the real thing eludes me) . Any hints would be greatly appreciated .

Douglas Scale Model Found

You may have already located this company via the Internet, but if not, they are still in business and still list the kit for sale. It is not exactly the same year that you were looking for, but the difference between 1913 and 1915 is very slight and probably not represented at 1:32 scale. The website for Scale Link is www.scalelink.co.uk and the kit is listed under WW1 military vehicles, kit # SMEB/VK02 at 22-12 sterling. They have the same kit with a side car. Their e-mail is info@scalelink.co.uk, Phone/FAX: 1747 811817. There may be other kits of 2-3/4 hp Douglases out there (perhaps a little bigger), this is just the only one I happen to have seen.

B. Magneto pickups - 2 required, 4 preferred. Also shown on the Electrical page - Magnetos 4. In the lower center of photo is a partially complete EIC magneto which has at least one of the required pickups installed, although there may be two, it is hard to tell from the photo. It would also appear that in photo Small Parts 2-9 in the upper left portion a single pickup is shown with wire.

Handle bar lever

Shown in the photo Small Parts 1 - Hand Controls, in the right side column, fourth lever from the bottom appears to be the lever needed. I could supply a tracing of the required lever if needed.

Please contact Mark Gibson.
