Hi.
I entered the world of British bike ownership 2 years ago when I bought my 1963 BSA C15 from an ebay auction.
I have been restoring her on and off for the past 2 years, in between restoring mainly Honda Firestorms.
She is almost complete now and her mechanical rebuild at a stage where I will be able to enjoy riding her.
I intend to iron out any mechanical gremlins over this summer and then a full strip and cosmetic rebuild during next winter.
It has been an interesting rebuild and much more challenging than doing Japanese bikes.
I have learned a lot and am still learning each time we do battle.
I have enjoyed it so much that I have recently bought a 1950's BSA A10 Plunger frame and rebuilt engine as the basis for my second British bike build.
I am busy collecting parts and info for the A10 build.
I have also aquired a BSA B31 motor, don't know why, and have that now waiting for inspiration to come my way.

Hi
Thanks for the welcome.
I will help you with any info I can.
Just ask.
Steve
My first British bike has now turned into a second British bike.
I just aquired a nice original BSA Golden Flash Plunger from 1953 in need of light restoration.
Time to get to work on her.
