1930 V pics needed - 4/19/2007 9:33:37 AM

I finally got my bike and side car. First step is putting it back together and seeing what I'm missing and what doesn't fit. Does anyone have one of these bikes that would be able to take some pictures for me and email them to me. I need pictures of how all the linkages worked, ie shifter linkage, clutch and brake linkage.

thanks

Peter

I doc, just got my Walnecks for this month and saw an add for Vintage Motorcyle Works. The web address is www.vintagemotorcycleworks.com I think they might have what you need. They offer a restoration guide for 29-36 bikes, assembly diagrams, original factory photos, and parts

Don't know if they still have them, but this place, http://www.antiquecyclesupply.com/ had left and right side photos of a lot of HD models. The set I got from them some 20 years ago for my '57 Panhead were quite useful. No bimbos hanging on the bike, so I could see where everything goes.

Thanks for the link. Fortunately a forum member rebuilt the exact same bike so when I get stuck he's been fantastic about taking some snapshots of his bike for me to use as a reference.

Not sure If I showed you guys but here is a pic after the mockup with the parts I had:

90% fo the parts are there. Now the hunt begins.

I doc, have you found any great online resources or manuals yet for your 1930 rebuild? I'm looking at the same type of thing (1930 V), but I'm just looking for more information, diagrams, and pictures. PM me if you get a chance.
