Pope and Westfield badged for sure used this sprocket, not Indian which even though some were made by Westfield Mfg was not a Westfield brand.

Here is the Motobike from the 1926 Pope catalog.

Thanks for that, I had forgotten about the chain ring. Can you tell me what colors were available on this model?

[MrColumbia]

here is the color specs from the same catalog

Because the above Pope literature indicates 3 colors, red, blue, black, does that eliminate that maker on mine as it is green? Would there have been a Westfield made bike distributed by any other company that would have used green?
Thanks again for all the input.
