I’m sure left few things off the list but come check it out and see this working museum piece for yourself. If didn’t have to sell would not.  

This bike is not showroom condition due to small dents in the left side of the original tank, believe the paint original but cannot confirm due to lack of comparison to how an original clear coat ages the color.  Color does show age accurate checkering, the resin tank badges have hair line cracks that don’t go all the way through (very common on Origina badges), and the chrome is not perfect but the bike is perfectly tuned and ready for good weather. And did mention super clean? Not lick of rust in the tank.  Does leak oil but it’s nothing major and I’d question any BSA that didn’t leak.  I left it in this shape because anything done to the original tank, chrome, and badges may de-value the bike to true purist.  

 This is local pickup sale in Knoxville, TN.  Payment must be made within days.  Sold “as is, where is”. will of course help in any way can if you choose to get it shipped but am not responsible after sale.  If you choose, will deliver for an additional fee but will not be responsible if anything happens to it.  This was my baby and lot of blood, sweat and tears went into it.  But am having another kid and this one must go.  You will not be disappointed with its performance.
