[QUOTE="Simon Dinsdale, post: 153646, member: 58"] I asked Bob Stafford once about the lifter lever when rebuilding my A Comet and Bob said with a smile on his face "any lever that works". He then said he thought singles used a smaller lever but wasn't 100% sure. I don't recall seeing a period photo of an A single with a larger lifter lever fitted but photos are not very good at showing such detail unless they are close up. Now this bike surfaced a few years ago and even though the photos are recent the rest of the handlebars looks OK even down to the rare dip switch so the small trigger lifter lever may be correct, especially as it looks the same as the "Moulton" bike period photos.
