BSA Roadster Shooting Star description
|
Excellent condition, unrestored, 1967 BSA 441 Roadster Shooting Star. All original with exception to side decals and one tank decal replaced. 2544 actual miles. Stored in a basement for most of it's life. Comes with original front tire, manuals and tool pouch (not original) - as seen in the photo.
Clear Minnesota title. Previously titled in Michigan. Fiberglass fuel tank with NO soft spots and NO leaks. Internal oil lines professional cleaned. Matching engine and frame numbers. This is a very nice vintage / collector bike. Every bit as nice as a Triumph or Norton. Not a Rocket, but still cool! It does have a minor blemish in the bottom of the rear fender- see photo and normal minor wear, but overall excellent condition. Runs and drives great. It takes a strong leg to kick start it just out of storage, but once it's run, it usually starts in just 2-3 kicks. There is a video posted on Youtube of the bike running and kick starting, but eBay does not allow a link attached to this listing. Either search Youtube for 1967 BSA 441 Shooting Star or email me and I can send you a link. I am listing this bike for my wife's uncle, Charles, so I may have to relay questions or put you in direct contact with him. (The video shows him riding it and I am in the other video kick starting it. I have sold bikes on eBay before. Check my history. Thanks for looking. Let me know if you have any questions. |

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.
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.
The Fonz Never Really Rode a Motorcycle!
Tue, 02 Jun 2009According to the “King of Cool” himself, “The Fonz” (Henry Winkler) never actually rode any motorcycles during the ten year Happy Days television run. Winkler, never rode a bike in real life either, he has dyslexia, which made it difficult for him to co-ordinate the clutch, throttle and brake. Instead, the bikes (Harley Davidson’s, Triumph’s, BSA’s were used) were mounted on a piece of wood with wheels to make it look like he was riding, even though I am not shocked, I am a little disappointed… You can watch the interview with Winkler, the famous motorcycle jump “The Fonz” made over 14 trashcans and a bonus “Jump the Shark” video after the jump.
