Ok then chaps, following on from Rick's suggestion in another thread, if this isn't from a BSA, what is it off? Any ideas?
The PDF spares list I have from Draganfly shows what seems to be an old Factory drawing of a rack, but that does not have the arched passenger seat rail either. Any comments on that product from anyone who has bought/seen one?
cheers

It looks like one those nasty Indian things that I bought that was bloody useless, cost a packet and could not get my money back from them, as it would have cost more than it was worth to send back.

The WB30 had a similar carrier to an M20 but without the arched tube. I had to modify an M20 carrier for this project. I doubt many of these B30 carriers exist though. I wonder if you clean some paint off, you'll see where the tube has been removed to accommodate a different type of pillion. Ron

Highly unlikely it is a WB30 carrier...There are only 3 surviving examples of the late model WB30. Only one batch of 100 late type WB30s was completed during the war and there was one partially completed batch of 100 which was cancelled...I modified an M20 carrier when I restored my B30 and it wasn't a staight fit, requiring some 'cutting and shutting'. Not surprising really as the two bikes have different frames. Note how the carrier in Rons photo is running 'uphill' slightly towards the rear of the bike.
It is far more likely it is a modified M20 carrier or an incorrectly made replica. The Indians have made them without the supporting arch for the seat in the recent past...Ian
