I do like an old BSA but couldn't afford a flat tanker so settled for buying an old Brit icon - a 1958 BSA C15 - to tinker with over the winter months It hasn't been started for about 8 years and have been told it wasn't an easy bike to start back then so I think I have a challenge ahead. It's got the early "eyeb...
