Stop?!? Of course it never stops!!! There's always One. More. Thing. that just HAS to be done.
We're up to six bikes in the garage now (wife accounts for two) and I came *THIS CLOSE* to buying a 69 BSA Lightning on eBay today....
I like the lightened flywheel. As I may have mentioned I got mine cheap, second hand, as a result of a posting on this board (I posted that someone was selling another one, that did NOT fit my bike, on ebay. Well, I was accused on being a scammer, but in defending myself mentioned the bike I have (not one the flywheel in question fits - hence my post) and someone else said "hey, I have one to fit that, if you're interested...." Anyway, bought it, like it, don't find it a major difference (I occasionally stall it out starting from a stop, if I'm being stupid...which I am, occasionally!). Worth what I paid, but not sure if it's worth full freight... not a waste of money though, and if you've lightened your spinning parts a bit already, it might make all that more difference. Not as much as a nice yelllow paint job, but hey some folks CANNOT be taught....
Hope all's well. Ride safe, Jeff - Brian
