My BSAs had about the same horsepower, but carburetors, a 4 speed gear box, and poor brakes. The new Interceptor has fuel injection, a 6 speed gearbox, and ABS disk brakes.
Like the BSAs it has bolt and nut valve adjustment. An easy and simple procedure I am familiar with. That could save some shop time and expense.

So it would be more akin to trying a new but similar-looking girlfriend than revisiting an old affair?
