that was a superb scrap. anyone not sure? you gotta watch it. as the yanks would say "it went all the way to the wire!".

cottenham is about 8 miles from me.

very enjoyable and i hate to say it but i think i can remember it first time around!

i think it's from 1966/67 but i couldn't see the captions at the beginning.

Look at the suspension folks, and count our blessings.

Indeed these bikes were not really "fast and furious" but their solid bars and rough suspensions made them very dangerous and we owe these guys a lot.

I wish we still had that type of seats, though...

My brothers manual has 288 pounds. The picture I put up though is of a Scrambles version I looked at to buy. It had a Cerianni front fork, Curnutt shocks, aluminum hubs, aluminum rear rim, custom aluminum side stand , muffler, and plastic fenders. The owner was a hobby machinist. He claimed it was more than 30 pounds lighter than stock. He had all of the original parts in storage!

He also was a Greeves (sp) man, who parked the BSA for several Greeves when he could not keep up with the Greeves his buddies were riding.

Here is a picture of my brothers 66 BSA 441 Victor for comparison.

Regards,

Joe
