    Seat mount weld broke again last time I rode it. Decided it is time to fix the stuff that bugs me and look for any less obvious problems over the cold months. Got a new seat pivot on the way from Low Brow. Gonna take it up to a friend to have him weld it on and do something better with the...

    BSA Lightning Bobber

    Found a guy down the road who put a quick weld on the existing bracket for me. It’ll be enough for the rest of this season and then I’ll get something better done over the winter. Back on the road for now though. Took it out for a Sunday morning coffee run. Sent from my iPhone using DO THE TON

    BSA Lightning Bobber

    Took the old BSA out for a run yesterday. Did about 40 miles round trip with a stop at the oldest pit cooked bbq restaurant in Georgia. Besides running out of gas it ran like a top. Got a small stumble at very small throttle opening so I’ll try raising the needles a notch. Sent from my iPhone...

    BSA Lightning Bobber

    A couple weeks ago I took her out for a little longer ride, maybe about ten miles. Things were great until I got to within about 100 yards of my driveway. She sputtered and died. Checked the battery once I got back in the garage, it was down to 6.5 volts. Did some troubleshooting and determined...
