Super Rocket Engine after Modify and Rebuild
« on: 07.02. 2015 16:13 »
Here is a picture of a A10 Super Rocket Engine.

I stripped the engine, renewed the bearings and bushes. Carried and end-feed conversion to the crank and bead blasted outsides before reassembling.

Looks Good!

I think the BSA A7/10 motor is the best looking motor ever put in a bike. Yours is a real good looker. Hope all the beads were well washed out.
