I had a BSA Gold Star. Single cylinder 500cc bike. Leaked oil nicely; like a good English bike should. The starting procedure was quite refined also. Parts fell off as you rode. At times the vibrations got so bad the timing would jump out of sync and you'd be stuck by the side of the road

I like my FT 900 knob (see my website www.qsl.net/w3fpr), but this is the one that needs the added 'drag' pad thickness, and has no depression for a 'finger-dimple'. I have seen the rubber tire from the Yaesu FT-900 knob placed aroung the stock K2 knob - it takes a wee bit of stretch, but it fits,
