Hello all,
I am looking for information about these 2 saddle badges;
Can anyone tell me which badge is correct for a WD Bike (Norton?)
Lex or Rob perhaps?
Many thanks in advance,
Sven

Careful Sven...You don't want your Norton to end up with an M20 saddle

Nortons generally fitted Terry saddles pre-war to the non-sporting models but the WD parts lists always seem to refer to a WD Lycett pattern saddle.
However, the covers do look different and it's possible to see from many wartime photos that Terry saddles were fitted.
My 1939 16H didn't seem to have been touched since it was abandoned in 1940 and had a Terry fitted with KG No.3 frame. I have no reason to doubt its originality. It's definitely a Norton saddle.
It looks to me as if the badge was originally tinned or silvered.
hey sven
i looked all over the jumble last saturday to find one for our wm20

Hi Roy,
I already had these, but I'm afraid we both look for Lycett badges now....
or you must want to have your Beeza original with a nice original Terry Badge!
I have one now, but it's for trade against an original Lycett only.
Regards,
Sven
