My friend builds BSA’s
He made a 750 chopper with 650 brakes and rigid welded foot pegs, hardtail frame and springer forks, as well as the Maltese cross brake light.
It looked cool.
He said you wanna ride it?
I said “Zip, this thing is a death trap”
I flipped it around in a few peel outs, then gave it back.
he and the wife took it out on a few summer evenings so I guess its all good.
