New member with a 1961 A10 Flash
« on: 03.01. 2023 12:12 »
Hi everyone,as the title says I'm a new member from SW Scotland and I have recently bought a 1961 Golden Flash. In my teens I had a few BSA's including OOV 371,a 1954 350 Gold Star which was BSA's press bike and featured in Motor Cycle in 1954,the year I was born.I also had a couple of Rockets and it was really a rocket I wanted when I bought the flash.However Ive now got the flash and hopefully sometime soon I'll come across a rocket which will do as it's partner.Ive also got an engine project on the go and will be looking for various bits and bobs but having had a quick scout on the websites,they seem to be few and far between.Thats it for now,hopefully I'll not roast you too much.Happy New Year to you all.
