Just bought my first BSA B25 Starfire (1969) that I hope to refresh a bit. It seems in pretty good shape, but I think it may have had a repaint at some time. Now it has the nice orange color from that year, but it seems the side covers were once upon a time blue.
The questions I have are about the gas tank:
* Did they come from the factory orange with a "moss green" stripe down the middle of the top side? How wide was this stripe?
* It appears the strip might have been bounded on both sides by a narrow black stripe. True?
* Did the side covers have a thin pin stripe following the inner contours?
* Did the tank have knee pads?
I've seen them with and without the above on the net.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, in advance.
