BSA Lightning 650 description

This is not a "restored" bike.  I've just taken fairly good care of it over the years.  Except for the exhaust, seat (from a '71) and right carb, all the rest is pretty much original.  Both fenders look good at first, but if you look closer, the front fender has little lines in it  Kind of like if you outlined congressional districts in Texas and looked at it from low orbit.  The rear one has probably thousands of little pit holes.  Think poppy fields from afar.  I did a bad job on the tank when I painted it last.  It needs a good cleaning and a battery.  If there's a winning bid, I'll deduct $40.  I spun the crank in 1990.  When I got it all back together, it started second kick.  It usually will.  Last started this spring.  Good machine.  Local pick-up only.

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

The 2014 edition of the LA Calendar Motorcycle Show continued its now 23-year tradition as the premier outdoor streetbike event in America with producer photographer Jim Gianatsis moving the show this year to the beautiful green lawns of the Malibu Golf Course among the twisty canyon roads in the Santa Monica Mountains alongside the Pacific Ocean. Highlighting this year’s exciting activities was the emergence of another new and soon to be renown custom bike builder to the sport for which the Calendar Show is known for cultivating. Taking Best of Show in this year’s Calendar Bike Building Championship was Calin Senciac’s Imagine Vehicles International / ImagineVehicles.com motorsports fabrication shop with an incredible custom billet aluminum designed chassis built by Terry Ward and the shop crew, housing a legendary 1979 Honda CBX 1047cc air-cooled in-line 6-cylinder engine.

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.
