1972 BSA A65

This is my BSA cafe racer project. So far have made a new seat, installed electronic ignition, installed smaller fenders, ace bars. The mufflers are British made modern cans from SP Engineering. I am running on Bridgestone Battlax tyres.
The next ting to do is shortening the front forks to give the bike a lower visual center of gravity . So far I have not cut in the frame so the bike can be restored back to it's original state.
