BSA B25 description

Stored for about 10 years in Texas under a tarp and in remarkably good shape. I got it running but really want to focus my energy on other projects I have lined up and I have more experience (and the right tools) with Japanese rather than British bikes. 

It takes a little effort to get started if it has been longer than 3 or 4 days but if ridden regularly it starts after several kicks when cold and after 1 or 2 when warm. 

New:
Idle jet
Throttle cable
Battery
Pazon electronic ignition (replaced points/condenser)
Tympanium voltage regulator (replaced regulator/rectifier/zener diode)
Fuel petcocks
Fuel line
Air filter
Fork gaiters (need installed) 

Adjusted:
Valves
Timing
Rebuilt carburetor
Chain

Needs:
Probably a new clutch and brake cable but existing ones are functional
New oil lines - it currently leaks from the outflow or inflow line...not sure which
Speedo repair
Battery cover
Rear brake light switch
Small tear in the seat
Paint is not professional, please look at the photos

I have a video of it starting and running that I can email or text.  I can also provide other photos upon request.

It has a title but the previous owner filled out the info on back without transferring it so I'm not entirely clear the best way to get new registration.

I will consider a trade/partial trade for an LS engine/transmission combo as well

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.

What’s Old Is New Again – Video

Mon, 14 Oct 2013

There’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.
