BSA Bantam D1 description
|
Classic 1950s BSA Bantam D1 Motorbike. This was imported from the UK in 2000 and has a clear Wisconsin Classic plate title. Last ran in 2013, now in dry storage. Only known issue is the kick starter spring needs adjusting and will need a new 6volt battery.
These were 'spoils of war'. Originally a German DKW design, copied by BSA and Harley as the Hummer in the late 1940s as a light post war motorbike. This bike was based in London and used by HM Government as a messenger bike. Restored and shipped to the US. Bantam's are 2 stroke (cycle) and need a fuel oil mixture. The gas tank as a measuring cylinder in the cap for the oil. Great condition but sold as is. Contact me with any pre purchase questions. Cash or cleared cheque on collection in central Wisconsin. NO PAYPAL. |

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.

Man Builds Sidecar from Bathtub
Thu, 23 Apr 2009Back in 1997, an unusual motorcycle appeared on the front page of the Bristol Evening Post. Unable to afford a costly traditional sidecar, bus driver Alan Iles of Bedminster opted to build his own, using a bathtub. Twelve years later, the 1959 650cc BSA is still going and has been ridden all over Europe to help raise money for Cancer research and various charities, for which he has raised thousands of British pounds.
