My attempt to make some bars failed when I mounted the bender to my bench. The bench won't let me to the opposite bend. DAMN IT! Now Ill have to make a real stand.

MY BSA'S


TACO TUESDAY,......ON MONDAY.



I stripped the whole bike down painted the frame, removed unwanted brackets from the swing arm, tore the motor down, did a little porting, and reassembled the whole thing. I still need to paint the tank, replace a couple broken spokes on the front wheel and get new tires.

Uh Oh!

This is the throttle butterfly from the carb wedged behind the intake valve. Unfortunately, the butterfly screws did all the damage to the top of the piston and cylinder.

1968 C25 PROJECT

Spent the weekend stripping down the whole bike, tearing the whole motor down, and putting it all back together in multiple forms. I think I like the vintage racer look. We will see what we can do for motor mods and maybe it will become a real racer.

Seriously?

Who does this kind of port work? The sad part is that people are paying good money for this. Sad!
