1971 BSA B50 MX This is a purpose built motocross bike by BSA motorcycles 2 year only model I purchased this bike quite a few years ago in very shabby condition.
I got it to run and fixed her. I love to ride vintage motocross. Fast forward a few years later I see the bike again but now it has been all tidied up and looks the way you see it now. The engine was not rebuit but runs strong. Other than that it has been cosmetically restored and looks very good.

old Buco bags that most of the bottoms are gone but still have a good look. Working 6volt charging system. Has old wheels as well as tires. It has a new wiring harness, coil, and bolt kits but most of it is old Harley stuff. Some parts have been antiqued to look old. Starts and runs good. This is sold as is! Clean title.

1975 Kawasaki H1 500cc two-stroke motorcycle.
The bike is the last model year of the H1 before they made the KH the following year, making this model year collectible to all the Kawi Triple enthusiasts! The bike comes with a clean title. The motorcycle is in excellent condition with approximately 23K miles, and it was completely restored a few
years ago saving you the time and expense of restoring one! Since then, the bike was stored and drained of gas, so it will need a light service to get running including but not limited to a new battery, fresh fluids, and possibly a carb cleaning. The motor kicks over with great compression, the throttle turns, clutch and brakes are working, inside of gas tank is clean, electrical is working, etc.
so it should not take very much to bring the bike back onto the road.

This handsome 1969 Sportster XLCH is the last of the line of the kickstart-only, magneto-fired ironhead Sporties, born in the 1950s and still kicking backin the 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond.
Gorgeous in its " Sparkling Gold" livery (original color but older repaint) and almost 100% original equipment. This rare beast hasn't been "
updated" or " improved. " What was chromed from the factory is still chrome. What was painted is still painted. What was polished is still polished. It still sports its original drum brakes, gaitored forks, alloy rims, factory exhaust, two-tone " buddy" seat, carb, " ham can" air filter, Morse-Fairbanks magneto, buckhorn handlebars, etc.
In fact, if you look closely, you'll see it still wears OEM Goodyear All Traction rear and Sport Rib front tires! Of course the left grip controls the spark person/advance, it shifts on the right and brakes on the left. There is no battery. The generator powers the lights and horn when running. It's vintage, pure and
primal. I changed the fluids, put in a new primary cover gasket, cleaned the carb, installed a new original style fuel petbird, cleaned and set the points, etc. After this, I fired it up, and test rode it the 5 miles showing on the tripmeter.
Ran like a freight train, clutch, gearbox, brakes, all good. Sounds fantastic. Clean title.
