BSA wm20 description

It was professionally restored by the previous owner who restores old BSA bikes. I ran it a few times last year, including DDay Ohio in Conneaut Ohio. It has been in storage since.

What you see is what you get. Runs great. Bike located in Illinois, clean Virginia title.

All original except for:
Headlight (ammeter)
Taillight
Webbing grips
Battery box
Kneepads

I got a few manuals, extra bolts, two cans of olive drab spray paint, extra bulbs. I do have the old webbing grips.

There is one thing to note about the bike:

Needs a new electrical wire harness. The current one is ok, but there are better reproductions out there. Also, it leaks oil, do I have to state this? (It's 73 years old, if you don't know old military vehicles leak oil, don't buy this.)

The bike will be inspected before pickup/delivery to ensure it runs as stated.

Payment:
Deposit of $500 within 24HRS, please contact me via phone after the end of the auction.
Full payment within 7 days, cash or certified cashier's check.

The girl does not come with it. Get your own.

The Fonz Never Really Rode a Motorcycle!

Tue, 02 Jun 2009

According 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 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.

Man Builds Sidecar from Bathtub

Thu, 23 Apr 2009

Back 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.
