British Bike Bits reached out and indicated a replacement handle would be coming. I’ve given them the claim number for FedEx so they know they will be compensated. Nice quick response.
 
Looks similar to the one I made for my 201 America, "Roy", from scrap metal. Please excuse the dodgy welding......

Setting up the Woodcraft front stand was interesting. Took me a few tries to get the right height and to keep the fork from slipping off the stand. If the rollers are not positioned correctly it will rotate off the stand as lifted. The front roller needs to start off at the front edge and as it is lifted will rotate and move to approximately the middle. The first time it slipped off I had a huge “oops what happened” moment. The rear stand is fixed by bolts to the center stand location and proved to be very sturdy. Now that I have the front set I won’t need to adjust it again. Both wheels are approximately the same height off the ground.

Funny story on the errand handle, my regular postman sees me driving my old car on an adjacent street from my house and flags me down. He tells me there’s a package for me delivered by FedEd on the adjacent street to our house, wrong address. He hasn’t come to our house yet so, he said he’d drop back and pick it up. Thank you US postal service and especially our mailman, you rock!
