BSA Lightning description
This is a very nice running old Brit bike. It starts easy and idles great. Shifts real smooth. It needs nothing, ride it home.
All the lights and horn work good. The speedometer reads 23,740, but I doubt the accuracy of any old bike like this. It has been up-dated with electronic ignition and charging system. It's no garage queen, but a presentable every day driver. It runs like it probably has had a recent rebuild. Very quiet engine with a nice throaty exhaust sound and no oil leaks so far.
I did put new fork seals,oil, and boots on it. Other than that I've just rode it around a little bit. It has a real nice ride, suspension feels good. I would ride this anywhere and feel confident about reliability.
Any shipping will of coarse be the complete responsibility of the buyer. I will work with the shipper as much as possible to get the bike ready for him or her. There is a relatively low reserve on this so bid to win. This is a steal of a deal. If you have any questions, I will try to answer them and if you would like different pictures, please let me know.
On Sep-24-13 at 13:16:46 PDT, seller added the following information:
I'm sorry but the odometer miles jumped to 47,601 just from riding around thwe yard. Apparently there is something very wrong with the odometer, so the miles are unknown. Please disregard the miles listed above. EBay will not let me change it.
If any bidder wants to withdraw their bid, I will understand. Tha speedometer does seem to work fine.

The Steve McQueen Desert Racer
Tue, 24 Mar 2009There 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.
