Here are some pics of my 2 bikes '92 1000S and '65 BSA Lightning Clubman.
Both are undergoing a wee bit of refurbishment at the moment as the winter draws in.
 I saved up and have had the BSA's engine/gbox totally rebuilt by Mike Bell who restores for the National Motorcycle Museum, normally I'd do it myself but I wanted it expertly done so I saved up and did it, it looks from the internal pics that you could eat your dinner off the inside of it, mind you it took a year!
 
Third and fourth pics are of my £75 Mk1 Le Mans which was a burned out wreck when I got it.... ........Cinders will go to the ball, (pun intended).

Hi red leader one,when and where was that?
 
Apologies, might have misread post, did you mean the BSA factory?

Yes, Armoury Road. I was born down the road opposite the Barracks & School (now a jihadist stronghold apparently)
