Now THAT'S a proper bike!

In the spirit of drooling over old-fashioned ironmongery - here's a pic of another 350cc bike. But this one is a proper oldie not a modern retro.

It's a ZB31 BSA from somewhere around 1950/2. A friend from Tasmania rode it all the way across the Nullarbor to Perth a few years back. Well, nearly all the way... The clutch packed up a few hundred ks short of the target. So I got to look after it for a while... As you can see, in true BSA fashion, it began dripping oil the moment it arrived..
