Mild Custom – 1950 BSA B33

In Custom, England by AbhiLeave a Comment

Per the seller, this example was originally a dirt track racer owned by a BSA dealer in New York. But it’s street legal, so you could enjoy city streets as well. What would you do with it?

The B33 was the 499cc big brother to the 348cc B31. The bikes looked nearly identical but the 33 got a larger rear tire, heavier flywheels in the motor, and a bigger carb. Though this bike may have a racing history, the B33s were never intended to be used that way – they were instead designed to provide reliable transportation for the masses. For more information on the B33, check out this Buyer’s Guide from Sump Magazine.

The seat, tires, tail light, and headlight bucket are non-original (though the original Amal carb will be included).
Find this B33 for sale in Cedar Park, Texas for $5,250 here on Craigslist.
