Is that price way off the mark, or about what they are going for?

I'd say it's got a very good chance of selling at that price. It's a rare machine in great condition ...... and 78 years old !

Very nice. If I was ever going to get a BSA, I'd want the one with the half aluminum/yellow tank. Pictures will have to suffice...

Yeah, the unit singles are fairly accessible classics. It's even on your own island, right? Go get it!
Call me Mel. Some years ago- never mind how long precisely- having little or no money in my purse, and nothing particular to interest me at home, I thought I would ride about a little and see the other parts of the world.

Grant & me bought this recently up country. The seller was after a quick & easy sale and we fell for it! I suppose it's a wee bit harder to sell when you're a fair distance away.

We spent a little time cleaning it up. Not much time mind you as it is in bloody good nick. A day in the shed pulling parts off, inspecting, cleaning, reinstalling is good therapy I'm here to say. Here's Grant in my shed..
