Clueless Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Hi, I am hoping that someone can help me please? I've inherited some parts from my uncle and I have no clue what some of them are and even more clueless as to the bikes they should go on! Would it be ok to post some pics here for you knowledgeable chaps (and chapesses) to peruse and educate me about? The only motorcycle I remember him having was a BMW? He said it used to be an Italian Policeman's bike, or the type that they used to use. TIA Edited March 20, 2021 by Clueless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Frog Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) Interesting ! The mirrors look like car door items possibly adapted to be used on large fairings like the police used. Do you by any chance know the age of the police type bike in question? The chrome bits in the first pics remind me of pannier trim or handle pieces.

Mr Fro Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 They looks suspiciously like car parts to me. The larger chrome bits look like classic British bonnet hinges. Something Triumph or Austin maybe. Same for the mirrors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiwiBob Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) The picture of the hinge cem1 ada898 is a Leyland bonnet hinge. https://www.morrisminorspares.com/body-inc-panels-trim-c21/bonnet-fittings-c22/bonnet-hinge-l-h-genuine-leyland-boxed-ada898-new-old-stock-august-1951-onwards-p827990 So my guess is that they're ll Austin/Morris spares.

Clueless Posted March 21, 2021 Author Share Posted March 21, 2021 Thank you all for your replies. That's funny, I don't remember my uncle having a Morris Minor. No doubt it was when I was a kid I'm sorry if I got anyone excited about them being motorcycle parts, it's just I'd always known him to have bikes more than cars. Anyway, thanks again everyone and Happy Biking!! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
