Oh man, I'm gettin' shaky reading through the posts. One of the earlier posts was lamenting about the BSA Lightning. Back when I was in high school and had motorcycle magazines all over my room, I remember the BSA add in Cycle World with the blond standing next to a Beezer Lightning in the shipping crate and the tag line stated "120 Out of the Box". Always had a soft spot for the British twins. Triumph Bonneville, BSA Lightning, Royal Enfield, Norton. All hot rides in their day with low 13 sec. ET's. Very quick out of the hole too and soooooo Steve McQueen-like.
