Having bought the BSA A65 Oil In Frame Lightning 650cc bike in very poor condition.First job was to have an SRM bearing conversion undertaken. From then on the bike has given good service with many thousands of miles covered. Oil changed (SAE 40) every 2000 miles. Additional filter fitted in return oil line. Original points system retained, and Champion N7YCC spark plugs found to give best service of the many different types tried. Front conical hub brake found to be excellent when correctly set up, as good as any disc I have experienced on other bikes.
