    Thanks, but I sold all my BSAs several years ago and just sold my Harley Davidson last year. I somewhat reluctantly got out of the motorcycle scene after riding for 55 years. I did have a `65 A65 with a single carb. I replaced the Monobloc with a Mikuni 32 the day I was riding it work and smelled gas and looked down and it was spurting a stream on my leg. I`ll be the first to admit the Amals were shitty carbs. At least the concentric was an improvement over the monobloc. It was probably designed by Joseph Lucas, too, lol.
