BSA B1 description
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 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.
