TerrY, It doesn't seem to matter which Chadwick, with Ruben winning the Twinshock Masters last year, it is the most prolific name on the trophy! Here is one I prepared earlier:

David, the later RL [top of photo] has been repainted, the previous owner said he painted it the same. My loan bike [bottom of photo and above] may have been repainted, but I thought it was the original paint.

Paulo, not sure if this photo from genuine parts manual helps, but the spring is definitely different?
While I think of it 520 11T and 50T works best for me.
Chippy and David, nice photos and some nice bikes always at Conondale!

Both of mine are missing the airboxes and the parts book makes it look like a small version of 247 airbox
