Selling my pre-war 1934 BSA Model B1 250cc British motorcycle.
Note: The motorcycle does not currently start. Title is clear and currently registered/licensed in California. The motorcycle is a side-valve 250 cc model with rigid frames and girder front forks, chain-drive, all original motorcycle with the electrical system (1934 was the first year that electrical was introduced for BSAs). The carburetor is the original AMAL model. The gas-tap is original push-style and may need a new cork or soaking/swelling prior to use. The motorcycle is equipped with the original 6V coils and regulators for the spark. Tested for spark - coils work as intended! Has a new 6V sealed battery and the electrical system powers the lamp and tail-lamp (see images). It has a three-speed original gear-box with the original hand-shifter - a fun way to ride. Includes the rare original Smith speedometer that used to be an accessory for the bike. Currently does not start though engine turns and sparks - carburetor may need cleaning and valve-guides may need adjusting. Currently sold as-is without any warranty implied. Mileage is not accurate. It's a fun bike to ride around, collect, or as a display. If you have any questions, I'll be happy to answer to the best of my knowledge. Note: Buyer has to arrange their own shipping and handling. I can gladly recommend a few on uship that I have used. I can help store the bike until shipping is sorted out. Shipping and handling is not included in the bid. Thanks. |

The revived BSA brand showed its first Gold Star model
Fri, 04 Mar 2022At last we have a brand new model of the beloved brand: after the success of Royal Enfield and Jawa, the British BSA has returned to service. The single-cylinder classic Gold Star will enter the European market - a spiritual successor to the original company's lineup, but with a completely modern filling. The novelty is equipped with a single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, two overhead camshafts and 4 valves per cylinder, a working volume of 652 cm3.
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.
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.
