Michael,
This looks like a proprietary universal speedo drive to fit a multitude of machines. The large gear is normally clamped to the spokes and the right angle drive box fits on a bracket that goes onto the wheel spindle. The fittings would have varied depending on the machine to which it was fitted.
In 1930, Douglas produced their own speedo drive gearbox that fitted to the end of the hub. It had totally enclosed gears and fitted in place of the normal dust cover. From memory, I think the ratio was 29/10.
Regards,
Eddie.
