BSA Roadster Shooting Star description
|
Excellent condition, unrestored, 1967 BSA 441 Roadster Shooting Star. All original with exception to side decals and one tank decal replaced. 2544 actual miles. Stored in a basement for most of it's life. Comes with original front tire, manuals and tool pouch (not original) - as seen in the photo.
Clear Minnesota title. Previously titled in Michigan. Fiberglass fuel tank with NO soft spots and NO leaks. Internal oil lines professional cleaned. Matching engine and frame numbers. This is a very nice vintage / collector bike. Every bit as nice as a Triumph or Norton. Not a Rocket, but still cool! It does have a minor blemish in the bottom of the rear fender- see photo and normal minor wear, but overall excellent condition. Runs and drives great. It takes a strong leg to kick start it just out of storage, but once it's run, it usually starts in just 2-3 kicks. There is a video posted on Youtube of the bike running and kick starting, but eBay does not allow a link attached to this listing. Either search Youtube for 1967 BSA 441 Shooting Star or email me and I can send you a link. I am listing this bike for my wife's uncle, Charles, so I may have to relay questions or put you in direct contact with him. (The video shows him riding it and I am in the other video kick starting it. I have sold bikes on eBay before. Check my history. Thanks for looking. Let me know if you have any questions. |

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.

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.
