Now I do subscribe to the "live and let live, ride whatchoolike" creed.

But this one really made me scratch my head and wonder..

What a thing to do to a 1958 BSA. I agree, "ride and let ride" but... surely there are limits? I mean, the one you posted looks like a conflicting mess of styles, parts, metals... everything. I'd be embarassed to be seen on that bike!

Well, at least it's got suspension and brakes . It's got some elements of the Honda scramblers of the 70's, but without the heat guard on the exhaust you might burn yourself on that exhaust right by your leg light that .

At least it's salvageable

Hi Gareth,
y'know, that one ain't too bad. All the dumb stuff can be taken off and replaced, if not with stock parts, at least with something sensible. And I gotta say, if better forks and shocks had been available back when I had a '58 BSA I'd have fitted them in a heartbeat.
