BSA project
« on: November 03, 2013, 09:20:16 pm »
Unfortunately I've decided I'm just not going to get this one done due to other stuff that's going on. I thought I'd offer it here as a package before I split it up on ebay. I've paid more for the parts than I'm asking.

BSA B40WD engine, seems to have good compression was apparently "rebuilt". I was always intending to pull it down and go through it though. The gearing on these would need to be changed for mx anyway. The stock WD gearing is more suited to trials. Comes with carb and header pipe.

BSA B40WD frame and swingarm. Very good condition, I've had inserts machined to fit the Betor triples included. Comes with a new set of swingarm bushes.

Betor 35mm forks and triples. Excellent condition, just need seals.

Rickman front hub, brake plate and axle.

Early Yam full width hub, brake plate, and axle

New spokes to suit Yam front hub, used spokes to suit Rickman front hub

CZ rear hub, brake plate, axle and adjusters

Used 36 hole Mudcatcher rear rim, needs polishing

Used 36 hole Mudcatcher front rim, still laced up to TM400 front wheel, needs polishing

New vintage style Magura trapdoor throttle and slimline grips

2 x sets of Tomaselli style levers

Used alloy front and rear guards

American Eagle tank, needs sealing, resto etc.

$1300

You will be well happy when you have completed it and will enjoy the class  :)

Might want to double check that B40 motor.... 
It looks like it could be a CCM unit as it appears to have the pineapple top end on it.  Very Trick!

Finish it off (or put it back under the bench).  It's not like you've got anything else to do.  ::)
Looking for YZ250C parts NOS if possible

The only triple jumps he would have been doing are the hop, skip & jump.

Thanks for the words of encouragement, I didn't make the decision lightly. Looks like it might be moving on to someone who I know will finish it and from what I've seen in the past will do a beautiful job.

Fair enough.  If you get lonely and need a project to work on I can always bring one of mine over  ;D ;D

Thanks for all the interest, the bike has been sold.  Should be a good thing when it's done. Cheers
