    Good Points: Exciting acceleration upto 50 mph
    Stunning looks
    It shakes


    Bad Points: Lousy brakes
    It shakes (a lot)


    General comments: Mines a blockade bike, built using lots of BSA bits around 1972 and registered 1973. I have had the thing since 1980 and it's done a lot of miles (+60 pistons) but not many recently.
    Apart from things falling off- including the ignition switch in Bicester once - and exploding alternators, it doesn't leak much. The sound is just lovely and on twisty roads there isn't much to touch it but it's underpowered by modern standards. The comical hub brakes are poor, it's probably better to slow using your feet! So the later T140 with it's disc brakes is a better touch but they spoiled it by sticking the brake and gears on the wrong side!
    Overall great for fun - not much cop for long commutes.
