1956 BSA for restoration, or perhaps ride and repair For Sale
The bike apparently spent much of its life as something called a 'pines racer' and whilst the bike is scruffy, I have a feeling that mechanically it was looked after as there's lots of lock-wiring in place and the oil that I drained from the sump was old but clean, similarly inside the chaincase is clean and healthy. There's no evidence that the engine was much of a 'leaker' judging from the absence of oil/ dirt accumulations. The engine turns over easily with decent compression, sparks leap across the plug gap and I suspect that it will run without much bother.
I haven't checked that the frame (CB32 43xx) and engine number (DB34 6xx) are matching but suspect they will be. My intention was to get the thing running, do enough to make it road-worthy, shake it down and then do a cosmetic restoration. Some domestic reality means that the DB34 needs a new home!
