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.

Daren,  I bought a stand from the LDMCC, there are two kinds (at least), a wide which is I understand for use with the woffle box muffler and a narrow one required where the low set mufflers are used.

I suspect you would have to be very careful to only set the bike on very level ground if you are using the narrow stand.

Affirmed!  I bought a narrow stand from the LDMCC, and had the bike topple a few times.  I ended up welding extensions to the sides of the stand to make it wider.  In hindsight I should have chose the wide stand for my Mark 3 Sports.  

Even so, when not on a hard surface I try to lean the bike against something, or take a square of plywood along with me to place under the centerstand.
