Mark by early, he probably means the rubber mounted handlebar. Ron

I do indeed Ron!
Still looking everyone, not in a rush, happy to meet up at founders day if people want to save extortionate postage for heavy stuff.

Re: BSA WM20 early top yoke and foot rests

Thanks for the part numbers, Ron.

Does anyone know of a supplier for the large nuts (15-5285) that fix the handlebar damper rubbers? I have a salvaged pair awaiting replating, but would like some good 'uns.

Re: BSA WM20 early top yoke and foot rests

As you have originals, I would think that anyone with a lathe and the right hex bar could easily make copies....Mark? Ron

Re: BSA WM20 early top yoke and foot rests

Hi Craig
I have the following here
1 x set of retaining nuts - chrome plated
1 x set of locking tab washers - un plated
1 x set of modern shock absorber rubbers

It’s the last of what I had made in U.K.
if interested drop me a line

Re: BSA WM20 early top yoke and foot rests

Well since Scott seams to have missed out on the parts that John has, maybe Craig could send you his original nuts to copy to go with your washers?

When I built my 39 Speedtwin, I bought the handlebar rubbers off Jeff Hunter (the rubber man) But the rubber or Neoprene that he uses was far too soft and just squidged out the sides as I tightened the nuts. So I visited a firm in Southampton who specialise is various forms of rubber components. They pressed me out some doughnuts the correct size from some sheet material. It must have been 1/2" or 5/8"? thick and clamped up perfectly. Ron

Hi Scott,

Yes, if my salvaged nuts are of use, let me know.

Re: BSA WM20 early top yoke and foot rests

Thanks for all the inputs chaps, after getting a lead I have secured a top yoke. It’s showing it’s age but I can sort that out.
Can anyone tell me what the thread size the big nuts are??
