I'm selling one of my BSAs .... a 1970 Lightning. I bought this bike from the original owner's widow. It is a matching numbers, almost all original bike. Recent maintenance includes (2)new Amal carbs, new Barnett clutch, rebuilt oil pump and one-way valve, Pazon electronic ignition, new tires and tubes, plugs and wires, Installed stainless allen-head screws in place of the old Phillips head ones. This is the last year before the dreaded "oil in frame" BSAs. Everything works: lights, horn, etc. It has 9055 original miles, but that goes up 3 miles daily, as I ride it most everyday. I have a clear title in hand. $5800/OBO
