BSA Rocket III description
|
FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION IS ONE 1969 BSA ROCKET 3 PURCHASED FROM THE SECOND OWNER AND IN VERY NICE CONDITION WITH 6233 ORIGINAL MILES. THE BIKE WAS GIVEN NEW TIRES, PAINT ON GAS TANK AND SIDE COVERS WITH HAND PIN STRIPING, NEW AMAL 626 CARBS, HEADLIGHT SHELL AND A SUPER TUNE AND SERVICE. EVERYTHING ELSE IS PRETTY MUCH HOW IT CAME FROM THE FACTORY. BEST PART IS NO MONKEYS HAVE BEEN INTO THE MOTOR TO MESS IT UP THEN PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AND CALL IT RESTORED. THIS IS A VERY PRESENTABLE BIKE TO RIDE OR SHOW. THE ONLY REAL NEGATIVE IS THE FRONT WHEEL HAS A 2 - 3" LONG SPOT WHERE THE CHROME HAS BEEN COMPROMISED WHERE CONDENSATION SETTELED WHILE SITTING. THE REST OF THE CHROME WHEN LOOKING VERY CLOSE HAS TINY PITTING BUT IS STILL VERY GOOD.
THIS BIKE HAS BEEN SERVICED, RIDDEN THEN DRAINED OF GAS AND BATTERY REMOVED AND WILL BE SHIPPED IN THAT CONDITION. I WILL COORDINATE WITH SHIPPING ARRANGEMENTS WICH ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE BUYER BUT WILL NOT CRATE OR TRASPORT THE MOTORCYCLE. $500 PAYPAL DEPOSIT DUE AT THE CLOSE OF AUCTION BALANCE DUE WITHIN 7 DAYS OF THE AUCTION CLOSE NO PAYPAL FOR THE BALANCE. |

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.

The revived BSA brand showed its first Gold Star model
Fri, 04 Mar 2022At last we have a brand new model of the beloved brand: after the success of Royal Enfield and Jawa, the British BSA has returned to service. The single-cylinder classic Gold Star will enter the European market - a spiritual successor to the original company's lineup, but with a completely modern filling. The novelty is equipped with a single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine, two overhead camshafts and 4 valves per cylinder, a working volume of 652 cm3.
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.
