Dad's motorbike bits

[brewdexta]

My dad is selling off various bits of bikes, or rather he has dumped them at my house for me to put them on ebay. They are cluttering an already cluttered workshop up so I am making an effort to photograph them, box them up and get 'em weighed ready for listing.

The problem is, I have forgot what he said some of them are. Some like a new seat of a BSA C15 or the fishtail silencer and down pipe of a Velocette Venom are obvious. However he had various odds and sods lying around so I suggested selling these off as related job lots, especially as some seem a bit knackered!

When he dropped them off we went through all the bits and he told me what they were.

The trouble is, I forget which is which I think I know but I could be wrong. Can anyone confirm?

I think this one is Velocette bits as he also has some SS shrouds for sale which are similar, but I could be wrong.

And these are BSA C15 bits - possibly!

Once I'm sure I can get them boxed up, and labelled so I don't forget!

Cheers
Andy

Hi. Go and get your Dad back again and arrange them into groups or lots like you have here and include a piece of paper or card with a number on of what the group are for in the picture. Then put each group in a bag, also have a list of your group number, expected value, start price and final value. Then you can put each group up at your leisure over time and know what should be included in each parcel. Plus if you do that and someone wants to COC you have not packaged them up for nothing. This save arguments about wrongly labelled parts between you, your Dad and the seller.

It'll be a C15, C5's were the nasty 3 wheeled thing Sinclair came up with.

Thanks Colin

The above are the lots, the other ones are simpler, i.e. a silencer, a downpipe, a set of shock shrouds etc. The job lots will be sold as seen, you get what you see, trying to ask my dad questions about parts over the phone is a nightmare, he's as deaf as a post and you can hear my mum heckling him in the background!

Not much chance of getting my dad over for a while unfortunately, and I have so much other junk to shift I just want to get on with it.

So does anybody know if my assumptions about the pictures are correct

Top picture Velocette parts

Bottom C15 bits (thanks Jezguz!, I knew that, must have been a brain fart! I shall edit the first post)

Yes you are correct with the assumtion of top being Velocette and bottom being BSA.

Pm me a link when you get them listed for sale

Pm me a link to the velo stuff please too, bro in law restores them and would possibly buy as a job lot if they're of use
