BSA Starfire description
Pulled this one out of the back of a shop. It was sitting there for 30yrs. Had some fun with this one, but now it's time to move it on. While rebuilding it ( I work at a vintage British Shop) if the part was in question I replaced it. I like trying to use as many original, vintage parts. Borrnni rims, Dunstall clip ons....
Fiberglass tank had seen better days, so used an original Victor Special tank. It is flawless. I did also up grade the front end to a Triumph 650/750 front end. I am sure I am forgetting something, so please ask questions. More pictures on request Work done: Complete engine rebuild All new paint All new bearings and seals (engine and wheels.) New piston and rings Head redone with new guides,valves,springs New push rods New carb Original Boranni rims New SS spokes New Avon tires Upgrades 650,750 front end with modified front hub. New battery and stator. Dunstall clip on's New exhaust Engine, front hub, tank, seat pan and rims highly polished. Fired her up yesterday and took her for a spin. Clear Florida title in my name. Buyer is responsible for pick up and or making all shipping arrangements. |

The Fonz Never Really Rode a Motorcycle!
Tue, 02 Jun 2009According 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.
