The problem with these old bikes, is that the chief wire looks at all the other random bits of wire just dangling there and goes dizzy thinking about it. This is what makes the bikes tempremental. My old D14 had that attitude until I tore out all the random wires and rewired it the way that made sense. 👍
My D1 Bantam was always a "pig" to start. The crankcase would end up with a small amount of fuel in it! Would it start "NO"! Drain it and away it went. Til next time.😠😬😡😕
Well done for getting it running, now pull the mudguards, light nacelle and silencer off and bin those and then take it over your local fields and thrash the living daylights out of it. Well that's what we used to do.

One of my first bike's loved it Luke's electrics Lord's of darkness.😳😂😂😂😂😂
Love it! Typical stroppy Bantam! 🙂
Any updates on this?
hi, would you have the wiring diagram for converting to 12 volts?
BSA's are so damn cool, although Lucas electric can be a pain..
I think you missed a bit with that soap...
😂 😂
which soap is that?

Haha this actually has a buff logbook so hoping to get back on the road
Same as, about all they were good for. My D14 could even spin the back wheel in the mud sometimes 👍
And people like you don’t deserve to have motorcycles. Go buy yourself a Tesla
