BSA A65 Lightning 1972. Really nice American spec in standard condition. Extensively rebuilt in 2020, following repatriation from the USA by a previous owner, with invoices to verify. Fitted with an external cartridge oil filter, has stainless spokes and alloy wheel rims. Well maintained with regular oil and filter changes. V5 present and in my name. £5750 O. V. N. O

I purchased this bike as you see it now and have ridden and enjoyed it. Being from the last full year of full production by BSA it is less common than the previous A65 Lightning.
