Probably spent three times as much on fiberglass and racing parts as I did for the bike. In the late 70s I restored a 1971 BSA Lightning that had been altered into a quasi chopper.
I am a neat freak, so I seldom keep anything that I don't use. But for some strange reason I have kept a book "The Story of BSA Motorcycles" paid for in British pounds. The book has cutaway diagrams of various BSA engines. I also held onto to a 1967 BSA brochure.
These are definitely nice to revisit, especially original articles.
Came across these beauties on the showroom floor this afternoon. The '76 Gold Wing is in absolute original condition. The '79 CBX had restoration work done, but is nevertheless wonderful.
