BSA BSA SPITFIRE MK1VSS description

1968 BSA SPITFIRE MK1V SS

The 1968 MK1V was the last  "Mark Series" BSA Spitfire models made. A worldwide production run of only 1298 of the true MK1V models were produced. This 48 year old British Classic is an excellent surviving sample  

of this model; and has among other things, the needle roller timing side main bearing conversion, tuffrided cranckshaft and cams, new control cables, new wiring harness, new Boyer electronic ignition, new coils, anti wet sump control valve, new tires, polished aluminum engine cases, new chrome, new paint etc. The speedometer shows less than 500 miles, however I cannot and don't verify that this is the actual mileage as I am not the original owner, nor do I have it's past history. Judging by the overall condition of the it could possibly be an accurate and true reading. There have been zero miles put on the bike since the restoration.

What’s Old Is New Again – Video

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

There’s something distinctly cool about old British motorcycles. 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.

The revived BSA brand showed its first Gold Star model

Fri, 04 Mar 2022

At last we have a brand new model of the beloved brand: after the success of Royal Enfield and Jawa, the British BSA has returned to service. The single-cylinder classic Gold Star will enter the European market - a spiritual successor to the original company's lineup, but with a completely modern filling. The novelty is equipped with a single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, two overhead camshafts and 4 valves per cylinder, a working volume of 652 cm3.
