BSA Thunderbolt description

Hello, up for auction is a 650 Thunderbolt Project. I bought this motorcycle with the intension of rebuilding it. A friend was going to rebuild the top end. He lapped the valves and installed new valve springs. The cylinder is 40t with new pistons as shown. Sadly my friend passed away and it came back missing the majority of carb parts, some bolts, nuts and other parts I haven't realized. The bike would need a total restoration but I was looking at an unrestored bike that just ran. The pictures tell it all and what you can't see you are welcome to E-mail or call me at 620 870 8911. I will not pull it off or reveal my reserve. This motorcycle has been inside since I bought it in Texas in 07. The person I got it from said it was kept in a shed. The paint is original and the engine turns over in the bottom end. There is a clear Kansas title in my name. This bike could be left here up to 6 months, but must be paid in full in 3 days. I could not put this ad on without mileage and there is no speedometer so I put the above mileage to satisfy ebay. Thanks for looking.

The Fonz Never Really Rode a Motorcycle!

Tue, 02 Jun 2009

According 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.
