Pre '56 Bullet primary

I have a 54 Bullet engine that needs finishing, but I can't get the right chaincases . Does anyone know if any of the clipper ones will fit. I don't want to go down the route of fitting a post 56 alternator case set on - as I think they just don't look right.

I see our hosts have the inner case

but the outer one is out of stock. Try an Indian outer primary cover until the correct one shows up, then sell it on. The non-alternator cases are popular for trials bikes, so I'm guessing that our hosts will have them back in stock at some stage. Otherwise keep scouring that well-known auction web site.

I'm trying to avoid using Indian parts, - Externally anyway... :)

OK, though it's a moot point if zippy wants to keep it (externally) Redditch.
