With the exception of an unknown number of 4 digit serial bikes, it is assumed that once they started with the traditional numbering system, that the first one may have been A00001 continuing through A99999 before starting with B00001. Each letter equates 100,000 units, until after skipping "I" at K99999 and reaching one million units in late 1941 , they returned to "A". The chart shows the B series starting aprox 1937. The announcement in 1935 that the company was projected to produce 250,000 units annually, is much exaggerated in hopes of promoting the new company.
I was perusing the CWC Wednesday thread, when I came across this beautiful Speed King of @DonChristie , and thought it deserved a lookView attachment 1610314
I can't be sure by looking on my phone, but it appears the front fender is shorter and the fender braces are lacking of rivets that attach the wheel mount end . The features noted in original post
It sure does look like the snub nose front fender. Don, does it have the non rivet one piece fender braces, also, does it have the four digit or lower serial number ?
The picture is kind of grainy to see the brace detail well.
