Acquired by the vendor's late husband in November 1997, this 1965 model BSA Lightning is believed to have been restored by a previous owner. It comes with an undated three page schedule of parts and costs as well as some invoices. There are various old MoT certificates which seem to indicate that the speedometer may have been replaced or overhauled at some point in the 1990s, because in 1992 the mileage is recorded as 26,223, but the most recent one issued in 2001 shows it as 1831, and the current displayed figure is 1900. Other documentation includes a continuation green log book dating from 1971 (showing the same frame and engine numbers as above), an old V5, and an old style V5C. The BSA has clearly not been used for some years and careful re-commissioning is recommended before further use.
