BSA Bantam D1 description
|
Classic 1950s BSA Bantam D1 Motorbike. This was imported from the UK in 2000 and has a clear Wisconsin Classic plate title. Last ran in 2013, now in dry storage. Only known issue is the kick starter spring needs adjusting and will need a new 6volt battery.
These were 'spoils of war'. Originally a German DKW design, copied by BSA and Harley as the Hummer in the late 1940s as a light post war motorbike. This bike was based in London and used by HM Government as a messenger bike. Restored and shipped to the US. Bantam's are 2 stroke (cycle) and need a fuel oil mixture. The gas tank as a measuring cylinder in the cap for the oil. Great condition but sold as is. Contact me with any pre purchase questions. Cash or cleared cheque on collection in central Wisconsin. NO PAYPAL. |
