I have a 84 london roadster. Looking at the motor, it looks like a universal case. Has a cover over the type 3 dip stick port. Don’t think that case had a serial number under the alt stand. I think they may have built there own engines. Mine has a weber 2 stage carb with there own air cleaner set up. Pulls pretty strong if its a stocker.

Just put on a set of coil overs my brother had. Think they came off a harley. 13 1/4in eye to eye. Left the leaf hooked up. Set the springs on the highest setting and gave me 1 1/2 in. of sag. Rears had a broken bolt on the right rear that held the leaf set up to the frame. Made new spacers out of a boat trailer roller. Worked perfect. Rides great now. Need to tweek the charging system, no exciter to the regulator. Also need to install new tires, and might put one of my othere motors in it.

I just wanted to check and see if anyone on here ran into this. First step should be to get weight front and rear. They look to be 13in eye to eye. I am going to pull them to be sure. Looks like a lot of Harleys used that length. Some were air ride some were not. I am going to look for some take offs and try some.

Yes its london roadsters own square tube chassis. 1984 looks like i will figure out some front coil overs to use. What you see is the spring setting inside the bottom of the lower arm. A bolt goes through the lower arm and spring eye near the ball joint. Has anyone replaced there coil overs on a LR?

I need to find some rubber spacers for the rear springs. I think they would be ok. But the front end need coil overs. Looks like 13″ eye to eye. But no idea of spring rate? Has anyone replaced the coil overs on one?

This is the best i could do. Multi leaf in back, half of a spring set. Single in front.

I will get a picture. Its a single leaf that runs from the bottom of one lower suspension arm to the other.
