Speedo drive swap

A friend of mine has this speedo drive for a right hand side brake plate. He needs a left hand side for his WD/CO. Does anyone want to swap? Ron

Is that the one that goes into the early BSA brake cover Ron?

Hi Henri...No, unfortunately. I think it is a Triumph type..Ian

Looks more like it goes on the "Do not cover" type

It belongs to a German. He wants to swap because it's not the correct one for his 'rad'.

Sorry...I'll get me coat...

I may have a couple of NOS Norton & Matchless one's at the farm.......but will need time to find...

The right-hand type fit Triumphs and Ariels.....

If you can get hold of the two internal gears driving the opposite way, you can simply swap these over, the body of the unit remaining identical....
