Used Bsa A10 SUPER ROCKET for sale in Poole

Here we have for sale this absolutely outstanding 1961 BSA A10 Super Rocket 650 Anaheim!

The bike has just 2,307 miles on the clock and is in immaculate condition throughout.

In the 60's & 70's Californian petrolheads were world leaders in oval circuit racing either on rough tracks but also on tarmac. Only second in favour to Iconic Triumph Twins were the glorious BSA A10's of the late fifties and early sixties.

So, it is rumoured that to combat such overwhelming competition, BSA West Coast bosses tried to prompt the factory to build a short run of upgraded Super Rockets, which they aptly named "Anaheim". The requirement for this confidential short batch of hybrid motorcycles was that it'd be halfway between circuit racers and standard OEM models of the period.... but... it never happened! So, JETS Forever took on the mantle of building what might have been - and the results are absolutely stunning!

This one-off BSA A10 Series is the result of very laborious research around San Francisco Bay where Hap Alzina, BSA Distributor in Oakland CA, used to dictate what the English factory should supply.

What was found was a hidden wealth of such plans that were never taken to fruition. These were given a new lease of life, handcrafted from scratch by JETS' Tech Tony Taysom under Jeff Duval's overseeing stewardship..

For starters, the OEM frame was restored to concours standards to include minor but many small touches to accommodate those numerous invisible improvements for that unique allure and upgraded specs.

On the mechanical side of things, the Very Fast Road RGS "+" Specs 650cc motor was recommissioned and entirely rebuilt from scratch by world class BSA Specialist Geoff Dewhurst (head of SRM Classic Bikes), who also fitted and tuned the incredibly efficient after-market BSA A Series electric starter, manufactured by super craftsman Steve McFarlane Engineering.

Many high-tech new or custom machined parts were made and used by Tony Taysom; emphasising optimisation and track usability instead of all-out uncontrollable power. Finally, Sean Reynolds, JETS' Chief Tech, had the pleasure (and much aggro...) of completing the final PDI, which, as most readers will know, it's never a simple task on a recommissioned Classic.

Read on for the full detail and specifications:

ENGINE
Fast Road A10 RGS "+" engine with 650cc barrels and pistons using dynamically balanced crank, pistons and rods.
Gas flowed head with competition valves, springs and rockers together with appropriate lift cams.
Crowned by a modern Mikuni single carb pre-tuned to RGS specs, optimising useability.

Eddy Dow front brake.

BODYWORK & SEATING

ERGONOMICS
An iconic competition machine re-crafted to be road legal and comfortably usable by seasoned riders.

FINISH
The seriously critical job of painting this unique restoration project matching yesteryear OEM colours was entrusted to Steve, Mandy and Sammy of Image Custom Design, Camberley, who were able to commendably replicate and improve the original attire.
