BSA Lightning description
|
1968 BSA Lightning for sale. The frame VIN is A65LA6002. The VIN does indicate that it is actually a '67 model, as well as the single leading shoe brake, however, the bike was titled as a '68, most likely due to it being sold that year. Title is clear. The bike is currently not setup as a matching numbers bike, however I do have the original cases in my possession. The original ones were damaged previously, but have since been repaired and are ready to use. Those will come with the sale here. The engine was rebuilt from top to bottom two years ago by the previous owner and his mechanic and has less than 500 miles since the work was done. It has new pistons, rings, rods, valves/guides, and bearings. It has new Amal 930 carbs, new Dunlop Gold Seal tires and tubes on stainless steel rims and spokes with a quick disconnect rear wheel. It has a new electronic rectifier, new fork boots, and new rear shocks. The engine is very clean and polished with no broken cooling fins whatsoever. The paint is like new and is the original red color. Chrome is in great shape. No signs of rust or heavy blemishes. The tank, fenders, side panels, seat, chain guard are all original BSA parts and as far as I know they're original to this bike. I require a $500 deposit within 24hrs of auction end from winning bidder. This is a non-refundable deposit and will be applied to final sales price. The remainder of full payment is due within 7 days by Cash or Cashier's Check from a major bank. If other arrangements need to be made, please contact me before bidding. All shipping related costs are at buyer's expense. All shipping arrangements are the buyer's responsibility. If you are outside the United States, please contact me before bidding. To winning bidder, I will not release the bike to you and/or your shipper until the full payment has cleared so please make appropriate arrangements with me. This is an AS IS sale with no warranties given by seller, express or implied, and all sales are final. I do not accept returns. Please do not bid if you do not intend to pay!
Thanks for considering! |

The Fonz Never Really Rode a Motorcycle!
Tue, 02 Jun 2009According 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.

The Steve McQueen Desert Racer
Tue, 24 Mar 2009There 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.
