Cavcraft Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 If you don't ask, you don't find out... The remains of a long hidden 1928 BSA A28, it's believed. Was stripped for restoration 'years ago' then just sat there, until today. Sadly, that's pretty much all of what's left that I could find, bar some small-ish other bits, but there was also a fuel tank and the hand gear change lever from a 1920s Bown Villiers, plus some great other things, including what I think was the owner's own (i.e drawn by him) oil paintings. I'll stick some other photo's up later, if anyone wants to see them. UltraWomble, Saabnut, Iamgroot and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Jones that is, not your TL1000s Me and the lads were on a run over the moors and stopped off for a drink there. They had a Tls in black there as an ex-demo bike so i blagged a test ride whilst they looked over my 4 week old Sv650s. Fell in love with the Tls,and sorted a deal where i got pretty much what I'd paid for it in px. Iamgroot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the electrics work even the headlamp which might be down to lack of battery or might be something else. I was under the impression the lights were AC and fed from the magneto, but maybe they still need the battery to be in circuit. I'll lob a battery on it and take it from there. Also the got the horn for what this chap has done with his. Worst case scenario it gets a daylight only MOT when its next presented in August.

tobyd Posted May 30, 2022 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Any recommendations for Tank Pads? I have a new bike and never having such luxury before hadn't appreciated why tank pads exist and i've slightly scuffed the tank paint with my jacket zipper. I bought some Oxford 'transformer' pads which I feel won't last beyond tomorrow (at a push.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it won't hang about at that price anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
