Thanks for the welcome Jon and Konon.
I've down-sized considerably from past days of working out of a large industrial space. Gone back to basics and loving it. Organization has been key to making it work out of my suburban home garage.

New to me! Bought on a picture from an email with little information. The gamble was not that it ran but that it might be a 500 let alone a GS! 1953 BSA BB34 Gold Star Touring Fired up with a 376 donor carb, cleaning the mag points and some oil...and getting the engine to turn over after diagnosing a stuck piston. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/qS3B1MQh.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/caSZFbyh.jpg) It would run better with a 389. Also if those are the original rear fender braces save them. They were a specific length for the BB model. And the oil tank with the flip up cap is one year only for that model. I have a spare fuel tank for that year too if you're interested. Bill B...

Alan, Boomer or Jason? I believe it is Jason's bike you are replying about.

Hi, new to the forum and thought I’d post a pic of my 1960 BSA Super Rocket. I originally bought this bike in 1972 as boxes of parts. Over the years it’s been through several iterations including chopper, cafe racer, and currently as a “bobber”. Everything in the drive train has been completely rebuilt, the oil tank is made from a shortened fire extinguisher and my buddy hand made both the springer and hardtail…[img]http://[/img]

Sometimes things just happen. Got a call about a bunch of BSA parts ![[Linked Image from images.i.thechive.com]](https://images.i.thechive.com/__2c4cfa6c3fb6068c55028d5fea93666a_width-600.jpeg) Most of a 1968 B44 Victor Scrambler was amongst the pile. I have an engine and some other bits. I may just have enough to make this a roller ![[Linked Image from images.i.thechive.com]](https://images.i.thechive.com/__40922037e1b7df1e27816fc8642a3461_width-600.jpeg)
