This is a rare 1963 Rocket Gold Star Spitfire/Gold Star Spitfire. Based on the BSA dispatch records from two BSA owners clubs in the UK, only 266-272 were built between 1962 and 1963. They were for export only and to date only approximately 40 have been reported to the Gold Star Owners club in the UK as still existing. They are not your standard BSA A10 Spitfire. Unlike those, these use the same frame (GA10) as the Rocket Gold Stars less the pillon (passenger) loops and have Gold Star brakes.
Less than 44 miles
New paint in 2016. Comes with extra paint. Small paint chip on the oil tank beneath the oil cap.
Sheet metal is in excellent condition and well fit, all new.
Excellent condition, all new with the exception of the original Bates headlight and original rear fender stays.
This motorcycle is in outstanding mechanical condition. Full engine and transmission rebuild and runs very well. Head needs to be re-torqued after 50 miles. There is a small (very common for A10’s) oil leak at the speedometer cable where it attaches to the transmission. Sale includes all receipts and summery of costs which exceeds the buy now price.
