1960 BSA A10 Golden Flash 650cc, excellent runner, original eng / frame / reg

1960 BSA A10 Golden Flash 650cc. matching eng/frame/ reg sweet runner

Here is an excellent. very original example of probably the best and most popular all round British classic bike - the BSA A10 Golden Flash.

This example is in excellent condition. It has been in regular use and is ready to go!

Starting is good and the engine sounds really superb. no mechanical noises and no smoke.

It is great to ride. nice smooth and powerful. Bags of low down torque which makes riding British bikes so much fun. It is big and powerful enough to be safe on modern roads yet it is still a soft forgiving and comfortable machine to ride.

The dynamo is charghing well and a modern AO 12volt regulator is fitted. New solid 12Volt battery also fitted. Speedometer is working OK. brakes are good and gearbox & clutch are all A1.

The bike comes with V5C doc and original 1960 buff log book.

Engine & frame numbers are the originals. matching the original buff log book.

Frame GA7. 5721. Engine DA10. 10523

Date of registration is 26th February 1960. Registration number is 397 HWL (original. transferable).

There is an MOT until Jan 2017 and the bike is of course Historic (free)

Tax class.

Cosmetically the bike is in superb all round condition. It is a used bike not a spit & polish concours machine. but nevertheless very tidy!

The enamel on the frame is excellent and of a very good quality. The tank is good with excellent chrome & now dents! All good enamel on tinware etc. No fin damage on engine and looks nice & oil tight.

Primary cases & timing chest look very nicely with no gouges or scratches.

Seat is excellent. exhaust system excellent although downpipes have faded a bit.

Wheel rims front and rear are as new CWC “Made in England” items. spokes are all as new period style “rustless” type.

Front tyre is an Avon Speedmaster ribbed. rear is Avon SM MKII. both are quite well used but look to have another summer or two left in them!

This is a great opportunity to own a well sorted sweet running old Golden Flash with matching engine frame & original registration! Quite hard to find a genuine matching machine like this with original log book!

Don't miss this sweet running BSA 650!
