Luigi's bike

As usual, click any image to zoom in.

Mark (Luigi), crazy eBayer that he is, has managed to procure some chrome trims for his 1959 BSA C15 from seller brad27110. Great communication and even better packaging - his wife is a star!

The tank is away at the moment with Tim Miller in Altrincham being relined but as soon as it's back we'll fit the trims up.

In the meantime, I Mario, have had a go at repairing his speedo. One of the "wings" inside the casing had come loose from its weld point so I've bodged it up (technical term) with a resistor leg. What are Dads for?!

Unlike his other, newer speedo there is no brass adjustment screw so it looks like we will have to calibrate this one by bending the "wings" until the needle reads accurately.
