Are those fittings in the horizontal lines breather check valves?

I forgot that I worked on this one years ago. David Stein was a member of the Washington, DC Section for years until he moved to Oregon. This was the way it looked after I worked on it:

I spotted this photo of David and I like the mods he made:

Normski,

Sorry, no. However, I remember he used a Series B foot change and I believe that is what you are looking at in both photos, the short lever on the gearbox pointing upwards and the shift lever terminating at the foot hanger. The photos go out of focus if enlarged.

I noticed on the ex-Colin Wills bike above that it has a Terry Prince top end. I also see aluminum rocker cap spacers. I had to use similar ones on the racer because the Gold Star Valve springs needed a bit more clearance under the cap.
