BSA A50 description
This is for a 1967 BSA Royal Star A50 500cc motorcycle. It is partially restored. I am willing to deliver and will accommodate any request to see. The bike was apart when I purchased it. I put the engine in, brought it down to the head and it has a new piston and would imagine rings to go with it. The engine needs to be lashed before it would be ready. Its in the bike and has good compression. I just rebuilt the carb. I have new front and rear tires, battery, handlebars, handbrake and choke lever, rear rim and spoke set, brakes in the rear hub, tool pouch, ignition, all kinds of NOS parts. I went over the bike sanding and painting. The bike is complete aside from an exhaust, front wheel and hub, and some misc badges. I have the bike essentially in boxes except the engine, carb, oil tank, wiring harness, and the front forks are partially installed. Gas tank has minimal rust, oil tanks clean. Includes shop manual and reciepts for most parts. Have at least 3200 in parts and time, not looking for that at all, though. Reserve is MUCH less. NO TITLE, will write bill of sale. Bike is on Nantucket. Thanks for looking

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.
What’s Old Is New Again – Video
Mon, 14 Oct 2013There’s something distinctly cool about old British motorcycles. From the wire wheels, the minimal bodywork, and the exposed engines which give off a thunderous bark, I’ve always loved looking at old Triumphs, BSAs and the like from the 60s. I’ve never owned one though. The reason is simple: old British bikes are needy little maintenance machines notorious for the odd oil leak.
