I always admired the BSA 500. I owned one for a year before I got married. It was an MX model. Not street legal, but wonderful in the dirt. When I got married, my condo had a single, open carport. Nowhere to store it. No means to transport it. Away it went. I've seen some offered for $5000 in recent years. I paid $500 in 1977. My Yamaha SR400 is as close as I can get now. Fuel injected, kick start only. The same song and dance with the compression release to kick it over. Nice for putting around town.
I have confidence in my surgeon. The wildcard is all the insanity going on between the US and Russia. Hoping that doesn't derail the plans.

I worry about things like that too. Some people never give it a thought.
