Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am the owner of several BSA A65 models of different ages and I also own the original BSA workshop manuals and parts books for these machines. I have found this book to be an excellent aid to rebuilding this model of BSA. There are many hints and tips for assisting the home mechanic in these endeavours,most of which will prevent you making costly mistakes and making a fool of yourself, especially in front of your fellow afficionados!
Most of these hints and tips are not in the manuals as they are the result of experience by the author and not possible for a technical writer in a factory who has probably never ridden such a machine, much less ever taken one apart and rebuilt it.
It is well written, in an orderly fashion providing guidance in an easy-to-understand format. I wish there were more books like this.
