BSA Other description

This bike is a snapshot of choppers in the past, Everything on this bike is in like new condition. I have receipts for the chopper goodies on this bike, from Instant Chopper in mid Michigan. I have the title, the original Corbin Gentry MSO tag and paper. Everything on this bike is pretty much Corbin Gentry. it's a really nice assembly of catalog chopper parts put together with a rebuilt motor. I doubt it was ridden much since assembly. It has lectron Carbs made in Troy Michigan. Excellent molding on the frame over all the welds and joints. You can call / text me at 9895514801 I can deliver/ meet half way. It will fit in the back of an extended cab bed on an angle.

It's a beautifully running bike with one flaw. The kicker gear is worn and it may do this every 5 kicks, may do it every 20 kicks, though the bike usually starts in 1-2, but the kicker wont go down, you just put the bike in gear and rock it and it frees it back up. BSA's are known to do this, it's something you can live with or pull the cover off and file the gear.

 

I also have some more items included not pictures, a clear points cover, new points and condensers,  air filters, speedo delete, tach block off plate, and some cool pentagon NOS grips.

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.
