| I still think it would be logical to unite the Harley thread (in another section) with this one, there are also a lot of earlier bikes in a Bangalore car thread somewhere else. Here are some pre 50 motorcycle photos from the 80s: 1946/47 Indian Chiefs at Gurdial Singh's workshop in Karol bagh in New Delhi. The grandfather used to be an Army mechanic working on military bikes pre 1947. His son Gogi is with him who was a very adept mechanic, his son now continues the work. They were/are good for sourcing imported bikes as well. Top end of Arya Somaj Road, ask anyone for directions. The same strange BSA A10/Honda swing arm conversion is in the 3rd photo    Working on a BSA 1000cc V twin G14  Rajan Sharma, whose workshop was nearby looking very young, he shifted to the USA.   The same BSA 1000cc   Me on the BSA with some admirers of my oversize helmet..    A BSA B40? outside Jama Masjid in Delhi  Photos Andrew Blake One more of me on the BSA escaping from the admirers, they only got hold of my sweater Last edited by Julian UK : 31st October 2008 at 04:17. |
