    Hello to all.
    New to this forum, been a biker off and on for 42 years had a tiger 650 when I was young. Got a BSA Thunderbolt 650 in the shed and having delivery of a 2013 Bonneville tomorrow, hopefully to use to go to the Isle of Man next year.

    Hi and welcome to the forum

    How do you get on with the BSA as I almost brought a A65 Firebird the other day but the wife wasn't keen on the idea so I had to leave it be for the moment. :rolleyes:

    Just finished rebuilding the engine, only done 50 miles on it, repaired tank and painted looks good now. It`s a 1972 oil in frame, wanted a bonnie to do but couldn`t find in my price range then. cheaper to buy new bonnie than old.
