A bunch of spokes need tightening and they have various scrapes and scratching as they were used offroad for years. So not for...

The photos are actually from de-rusting my BSA C15 tank which, to be fair, is nearly 60 years old but the same technique can be applied to an OE or Raid metal tank that might have been left standing empty of fuel for a few years. The media I used is quite chunky and used in vibrating tumblers and is called, if...

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...
