My uncle had a 350 Velocette; was a MAC rather than a KSS though. D.
The MAC, and other later pushrod engines had a different engine side case, referred to as the "map of Africa". I got one from ebay as a decoration (and in hopes of attracting the rest of the bike:-)
I've never heard it referred to as that! D.
Langlitz Leather in Portland, Oregon, USA is said to have the founder's Velocette 350 KSS on display at their shop.Jack from Illinois
