Sounds like a bog standard british bike to me! :rofl: Same old issues we have all faced when buying an old bike, that's part of the fun and frustration I guess. Good luck! :beer:

Hello again guys and gals, a sneaky wee 10 mile test run was very successful , kicks over fine drives and selects with no issues . The 54 era box I bought was given an overhaul and is doing the job . For your info the biggest bodge problem in my old 56 box was the wrong size clutch rollers , the rest was worn out parts.
Thanks to all for your input.
