I am pretty desperate for a rear cylinder for my veteran Douglas 1917 2 3/4hp "W" model.   I there is anyone who may have one of these that can be re-sleeved or know where I may find one I would be very pleased for the help.  I have a number of engine parts that I can exchange such as matching crankcases, conrods, crankshaft, flywheel etc. Any help appreciated.

Does anyone have the specifications for the oil inlet valve spring for early 2 3/4 engines - Part number 424.   I have tried to order one from the club spares but apparently Jeff Swan is indisposed at the moment.

Hi All,Has anyone had any experience of handling particularly on corners on an EW with footboards and 19 inch wheels.My Mate seems to think it may be a bit hairy,so some comments please.

Hi Bazza, you should have no problems with the riding and cornering on the EW. I ride regularly and find that if I tuck my knees into the tank I am able to lean the machine at the same angles as when riding my Velo Clubman.
Relax and enjoy your EW. Roy. :D

I guess the 19 inch wheels will reduce the lean angle though ?
