BSA Hornet description

Nicely done older restoration. This was BSA's off-road racer which came with a tachometer, but no mufflers or lights. This bike is original, but with added lights and shorty mufflers which are removable, so that it can be street licensed. The only alternations from original are two holes in the rear fender for the taillight. The original exhaust pipes, fenders and forks are unchanged. Original carburetors and rims. Proper Cherokee Red. Matching frame and engine numbers with VMCC certificate showing date of manufacture and authenticating it as a real Hornet. 

Just changed all fluids, replaced fuel lines and disassembled, cleaned and adjusted carburetors. Runs nicely. Plenty fast. Signed and notarized Arizona title so you can license in your state. Last and best year of the Hornet.

The Steve McQueen Desert Racer

Tue, 24 Mar 2009

There are few motorcycle icons within pop culture that have endured as vividly as that of the late, great Steve McQueen. A man who was at one time the highest paid actor in Hollywood, he avoided the limelight in favor of immersing himself within his passion for motorcycles. Never afraid of getting dirty, McQueen was at his happiest flogging a bike around the track with fellow racers or tinkering with the machines himself.

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.

The Fonz Never Really Rode a Motorcycle!

Tue, 02 Jun 2009

According to the “King of Cool” himself, “The Fonz” (Henry Winkler) never actually rode any motorcycles during the ten year Happy Days television run.  Winkler, never rode a bike in real life either, he has dyslexia, which made it difficult for him to co-ordinate the clutch, throttle and brake.  Instead, the bikes (Harley Davidson’s, Triumph’s, BSA’s were used) were mounted on a piece of wood with wheels to make it look like he was riding, even though I am not shocked, I am a little disappointed… You can watch the interview with Winkler, the famous motorcycle jump “The Fonz” made over 14 trashcans and a bonus “Jump the Shark” video after the jump.
