  • Doug Frazer has rebuilt a 1916 Australian made motorcycle. Amongst his collection of British bikes his pride and joy is a 1938 BSA V twin. But the original version of the bike was not a performer so Doug built his own version of the motor from scratch.

    I've always thought a V-Twin built with BSA 441 or B50T would be interesting.

    Doug: Just ran across your video! Loved it! Had to chuckle as you made it sound so simple designing, engineering, manufacturing your one-off Beeza V-twin. I want to know more about it. I'm in Los Angeles, a collector, with mostly BSAs. In my collection is the oldest known BSA (early 1911 3-1/2 hp) in my living room, a lovely, all-original paint, etc. 1938 G14 1000cc V-twin, an ex-Dick Mann BSA Gold Star, original '69 Rocket 3, and rather too few (!) other tasty two-wheeled treats! Next time you're in Southern California, there's a bike in my garage awaiting you (you choose), helmets from which to choose, riding gear, and amazing places to explore here! Let's ride!

    I have been searching for this bike for a few years now...the V-twin done with two B33 engines is a marvel! I'd love to know what kind of price it is worth? Well done Doug...as I too am a BSA rider.....BRAVO!

    The starting procedure of the 1916 homage bike reminded me of my fathers Raleigh moped when I was a lad in the 1960's. It was probably the seed that started my life long fascination with motorcycles. Regarding the delightful V twin, did you build prototypes before the final complete bike? Is there anything you would have done differently in hindsight? Beautiful workmanship by the way.

      Nice story Geoff. I am the filmaker, not the guy in the vid. But I think Doug just went anb built it from scratch.

      pat milne Bugger...should have hung onto that one. Especially since it was the rare 7050 cc model. Surprised the motor fitted into the frame. Hee Hee
