BSA All description

This is a 1971 BSA 650 thunderbolt in all original condition except for petcocks, electronic ignition conversion and the original grey frame has been repainted black by the dealer when new. The original grey color was hated and a lot of dealers painted them so they would sell. Mileage is correct. Top end has been completely rebuilt with all new parts. New tires. Has Boyer electronic ignition. Runs like a top and everything works as it should. The oil frame BSA's are getting very hard to find and the later ones like this had the best motors of all the unit twins. Paint is original. Bike has State of CT registration and Bill of Sale. I am selling this for a friend. If you have any questions feel free to call me at 860-848-0607. You can either pick the bike up here or I can set up shipping arrangements but buyer is responsible for all shipping expenses.

From the wire wheels, the minimal bodywork, and the exposed engines which give off a thunderous bark, I’ve always loved looking at old Triumphs, BSAs and the like from the 60s.  I’ve never owned one though. The reason is simple: old British bikes are needy little maintenance machines notorious for the odd oil leak.

Man Builds Sidecar from Bathtub

Thu, 23 Apr 2009

Back in 1997, an unusual motorcycle appeared on the front page of the Bristol Evening Post. Unable to afford a costly traditional sidecar, bus driver Alan Iles of Bedminster opted to build his own, using a bathtub. Twelve years later, the 1959 650cc BSA is still going and has been ridden all over Europe to help raise money for Cancer research and various charities, for which he has raised thousands of British pounds.
