BSA Lightning description
|
This 1966 BSA Lightning is in great original condition. All of the paint is original, the chrome is very nice, and it has LOTS of brand new and new parts that include: speedometer and tachometer cables, battery, drive chain, rubber parts, fuel lines, and air filters. The brakes were cleaned, checked and adjusted, and the wheel bearings were cleaned and re-greased. The engine was recently rebuilt and EVERYTHING was freshened up or replaced: new first oversized pistons, new connecting rod bearings and bushings, cylinders bored and honed, new stainless black diamond valves, springs, and keepers, the guides were reamed, all crank journals ground 1st undersized, sludge trap cleaned, new crank bearing and bushing, new clutch plates and springs, new primary chain, bearings and seals. the oil pump, oil sump cover, and pressure relief valve are new from SRM and collectively cost $650. The side covers and valve covers were professionally polished. I let this bike sit for two years and now when it starts it idles very high and does not run right. I am sure the original, and most likely worn out, carburetors are the cause for this and need to be rebuilt or replaced. It has a clear Michigan title ready to be transferred, all of the lights and the horn work. It comes with service manuals, a parts book, a nice extra tank, and a few extra parts and whitworth hardware.
The numbers on the frame and engine do not match. I have the numbers matching engine cases, but that engine threw a rod and the cases will need to be repaired if it is to be used. I have a clear green Michigan title from 1975 and the numbers on that match the numbers on the frame. The engine in the bike now is date coded 1966, just like the frame. I do not know what the actual mileage is but the odometer reading is 35,000 miles. The buyer must arrange shipping for this motorcycle. I will also need a $500 PayPal deposit within 48 hours of the end of the auction, The motorcycle must be picked up within 30 days of the end of the auction. Thank you for looking. |
