BSA 1937 BSA 500 Sports - Empire Star description
I’m listing this machine for a good friend who’s not very computer savvy..
In reality, with engine number HM22, this is a "Sports" in Empire Star clothing. The machine is in fabulous condition having been restored to a very high standard by the previous owner almost 15 years ago. Having said that - the inside of the fuel tank could use a re-coat. The only deviation from standard trim on this one is the previous owner’s fitment of a non-standard, heavy duty spring for the front forks (he was a pretty heavy guy and rode the machine).
Consider this one to be a “good rider” that will need to be
re-commissioned before being pressed back into service. You can see the
complete hi-resolution photoset HERE and a short video presentation HERE. . Located in the Toronto, Ontario,Canada region.

The Steve McQueen Desert Racer
Tue, 24 Mar 2009There are few motorcycle icons within pop culture that have endured as vividly as that of the late, great Steve McQueen. A man who was at one time the highest paid actor in Hollywood, he avoided the limelight in favor of immersing himself within his passion for motorcycles. Never afraid of getting dirty, McQueen was at his happiest flogging a bike around the track with fellow racers or tinkering with the machines himself.
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 Davidsons, Triumphs, BSAs 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. Get the Flash Player to see this player. “Jump the Shark”, as per Phoghat’s request: Get the Flash Player to see this player.
