Description

1971 A65-T BSA Thunderbolt 650 A beautiful survivor;A RARE ALL ORIGINAL CLASSIC BSA! We bought this motorcycle from the second owner, gentleman in his 80's who has owned it since 1976 and carefully maintained it and always babied it! He had it tucked away in his dry walk out basement, nd wrapped in plastic wrap for the last decade.The bike has not been run in the last ten years and needs the tank reconditioned, he carbs were cleaned last week and are good, he compression is low in one cylinder from sitting (rings stuck perhaps or?), he bike was running fine when parked and needs a little TLC from sitting.
We have the Clean and clear 40 year old title and the keys in hand!
Please watch our detailed video of this motorcycle:
