BSA BSA SPITFIRE MK1VSS description

1968 BSA SPITFIRE MK1V SS

The 1968 MK1V was the last  "Mark Series" BSA Spitfire models made. A worldwide production run of only 1298 of the true MK1V models were produced. This 48 year old British Classic is an excellent surviving sample  

of this model; and has among other things, the needle roller timing side main bearing conversion, tuffrided cranckshaft and cams, new control cables, new wiring harness, new Boyer electronic ignition, new coils, anti wet sump control valve, new tires, polished aluminum engine cases, new chrome, new paint etc. The speedometer shows less than 500 miles, however I cannot and don't verify that this is the actual mileage as I am not the original owner, nor do I have it's past history. Judging by the overall condition of the it could possibly be an accurate and true reading. There have been zero miles put on the bike since the restoration.

The Steve McQueen Desert Racer

Tue, 24 Mar 2009

There 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.
