Vehicle Description As the story goes, a chipper young man, freshly graduated from School purchases a new BSA A65 Lightning Rocket as a gift to himself.
After a short time in ownership, the man gets drafted and has to part with his beloved motorcycle.
The bike was kept by his parents in their business until the time came to part with the bike in the early 80's.
The motorcycle found a new home in the hands of a collector who took great care in having the bike on display and running it from time to time.
Covering only 2,604 miles since new, this is the pinnacle of Collector Grade BSA A65 Lightning Rockets.
This example spent the last 2 years on display in The Throttlestop Museum.
It is now time for a new caretaker to enjoy this masterpiece of motorcycling history! This example is absolutely stunning, the original paint, the brightwork, instruments, etc.
, are all in pristine condition.
We did take the liberty to fire up this bike recently and much to our surprise, it is one of the nicest running British bikes we have ever seen.
This A65 Starts, runs and sounds outstanding! This is one you don't want to miss!.
