BSA spitfire description
1958 BSA Spitfire Scrambler. This bike is a barn find and is almost completely original, the engine, frame, and transmission match, and the carburetor is correct. The engine kicks over with good compression, but it will need magneto work to run. The engine is stamped HHC under the serial number which stands for High lift cam, and High Compression pistons. The bike is also equipped with a 9" ventilated front drum, and quick change wheels. The tank is fiberglass and will need to be replaced. If you have any questions let me know a few days before the sale ends, thanks for looking.

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.

Man Builds Sidecar from Bathtub
Thu, 23 Apr 2009Back 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.
