BSA BSA SPITFIRE MK1VSS description
|
1968 BSA SPITFIRE MK1V SS The 1968 MK1V was the last "Mark Series" BSA Spitfire models made. A worldwide production run of only 1298 of the true MK1V models were produced. This 48 year old British Classic is an excellent surviving sample of this model; and has among other things, the needle roller timing side main bearing conversion, tuffrided cranckshaft and cams, new control cables, new wiring harness, new Boyer electronic ignition, new coils, anti wet sump control valve, new tires, polished aluminum engine cases, new chrome, new paint etc. The speedometer shows less than 500 miles, however I cannot and don't verify that this is the actual mileage as I am not the original owner, nor do I have it's past history. Judging by the overall condition of the it could possibly be an accurate and true reading. There have been zero miles put on the bike since the restoration.

Wed, 06 Aug 2014The 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.
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.
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.
