I adjusted the pilot air jet and found out it was set too lean. It started on the first kick 2 times in a row before I called it 'done'. It's never started like that before. I was/am happy.

Good for you, and good for you thigh, Brother Bill!

P.S. Did you know the thigh photo you posted is upside down?

It's hard to photograph one's own posterior thigh. I did that for you guys. :wink:

You always go the extra mile for us, Doc.

Can you rotate the photo; I get dizzy looking at!

I received (from England) a set of replica stickers. With much research I found out where some/most of them go. I hope to get some placed tonight. Some go on the coil or under the seat or inside the aircleaner and I will get to those when I'm there for something else.

Nice bike. Cal Vickie and tell her she misspelled Triumph twice in her ad.

Maybe it really is a Triump.

The girl and the bike are about the same age. The girl looks MUCH better though. :P

SpudRider · 07-13-2011, 02:44 PM

That's a great photo, Brother Bill!

We met for coffee before church. Needless to say, given the BSA and her skirt we took her car to services.

Gotta love the sign above the parking spot. The BSA is a senior citizen. In bike years it's like 100 years old!

I moved it one spot over after I took the picture. :wink:

Looks fantastic! I'm glad you got rid of the apes, the bike looks so much better now 8)

Rides much better too. The bars and tires made a big difference. Plus a little tuning of the Amal carb, lubing and adjusting the cables, fixing the front brake, it's quite runner now.
