Beschreibung
The well-known and skilled motorcycle enthusiast Tore Nilsson of Hjärsås purchased this BSA in 1989 and then began a restoration. The engine was rebuilt by Stig Motormekaniska in Axvall, and Tore carried out the rest of the restoration himself. Much has been done for maximum performance, including replacing the drive chain with a belt, fitting a modified Mikuni carburetor, and raising the compression through boring. Tore has ridden approximately 2,000 km with the bike since its completion, with very good results. He has also taken part in several shows, where he has brought home many awards for his machine. On one occasion, when the machine was on display at Elmia, the famous racers Bill Nilsson and Sten "Storken" Lundin were also exhibitors and met Tore. The result was that they signed their autographs on the tank of this unique motorcycle.
