New member from Germany
« on: 26.08. 2013 20:41 »
Hello,

My name is Johannes (2nd given name) and I am from Germany. I’m living between Hamburg and the Danish border. I have to apologize my poor English. I’ll try to improve it.
I have 3 BSAs. The first one, I bought 30 years ago when I was seventeen. It’s a WM20 in army look. 2 years ago I bought a B33 from 1951 (looked for more power). I started to restore it. I had a lot of trouble with the gearbox and I was looking for a spare. Somebody offer me an unrestored, disassembled, not completed B31 from 1953. I use the gearbox for the B33 and started to restore the b31.
I like the A7 and A10 but one of this project has to wait until I have convinced my family.

Regards
Johannes

G'day Johannes,  *welcome* to the forum.
The singles and twins share a lot of cycle parts.
So when you find an A7/10, you've already got some spares.
Cheers

Welcome to the forum Johannes, don't worry about the english it's fine , just concentrate on talking your family into allowing ownership of one of the twins,try telling them it'll improve your health, enjoy the banter regards BobH
