You got a good one. A lot of BSA owners wanted to just kick their bikes...

The worst thing about that bike was the 3/8" x 13" grade2 (soft) bolt that held the footpegs on - until I landed hard after a jump.

You still have the Harley and picked up a Triumph?

That's cool as hell!

I wouldn't mind having the 1600 bonnie cruiser...

The "Traitor" is me in the Evo section getting a TC....and that's for real!
Good luck with your Triumph, I loved my new 1958 Cub and 1960 Bonnie.
Electrics are probably better now!
