The Lighthouse ammeter is definitely used on series A singles and I have also seen it on early series B machines from 1946 and 1947 and may have been used even later. I have several Miller parts catalogues from somewhere and will try and find them.
Now THAT is weird. My B has Bowden twin choke levers and Amal clutch, valve lifter and brake levers. I thought Series C had Amal clutch and brake levers, Amal choke levers and Bowden valve lifter.I have never heard of post war bikes with solid clutch and brake levers.Maybe the ammeters on the batch of bikes I am referring to, built in late 1952, are an anomaly. That batch also had solid Bowden clutch and brake levers.
Steve, look more closely at the pictures in my post. The ammeter screws are hidden and the amp lines are heavy block. Never seen that before.I am pretty sure mine came with that style, and the near showroom original Bob Chantland bike, only a few numbers apart, has that style. Exceptions, or still the norm at that time?
(edited) Sorry, forgot to mention, both of those bikes were built late 1952.
Also if you look the discharge is to the right on the eBay ammeter which is not something I have ever seen on an original which should have the discharge to the left.Steve, look more closely at the pictures in my post. The ammeter screws are hidden and the amp lines are heavy block. Never seen that before.
Sold for £137 which is about half the price of a correct one. Was it a bargain?This looks like a rip-off.
