Description

1965 BSA Lightning from private British Bike collection:
Up for sale is this beautiful example of classic brit-bikes at their finest. Winner of many bike shows, t is a matching numbers machine that has about 2000 miles since being fully restored which included a complete rebuild of the motor and a fantastic paint job. The correct BSA paint was professionally applied and is flawless. The period correct Dunlop tires still have the nubs on them and are fitted on new "Made in England" wheels and spokes. The exhaust appears to be original and is in nice condition with the exception of a battery acid stain on the left silencer. As you will note in the video, his bike starts 1st kick, uns great and can be a great addition to any British collection. Due to advancing age and no time to ride I am selling off my collection which includes a Triumph Hurricane, BSA Rocket 3, n Ariel Square Four, 1962 Triumph Bonneville, 1950 Sunbeam and others which will be coming up for auction soon..
The only blemishes to report are a scratch mark on the right side of the seat and the acid stain on the muffler which we have highlighted in the photos. The speedometer was working properly before we pulled the bike out for this listing but for some reason is not functioning now.
