BSA Thunderbolt in Chris Daughtry Video
Free-association searching YouTube (oh what you don't occasionally do that?), I found this music video by Chris Daughtry "Start of Something Good" that stars a 1970(?) BSA Thunderbolt. I'm not sure the year, but it really is the star of the show. Once it comes in to view, you can't wait for it to have another scene. During the video a young guy possibly changes a fouled spark plug. Who knows, but in the end, it serves it's purpose - he gets the girl. Do you know the year? Post a comment and tell us.

Custom Laser Death BSA
Over at Bike Exif you can see the custom Laser-Death BSA, cobbled together over time by artist Maxwell Paternoster from the CorpsesFromHell blog. I always loved this bike because of its character and patina. And there is something about the photos of the bike on display in the house that is very comforting.

"Totally Original" 1949 BSA A7 For Sale
OK, so the paint and striping and window plastics have been updated, but this garage-kept, brazen-sheathed, gently-starting BSA is nevertheless, jaw-dropping.

The Downshift Cafe Racer Feature
This is admittedly an introduction to cafe racers from Motor Trend's The Downshift, but the shots are cool and the bikes are crackin'. You'll see Deus folks interviewed and some of the guys from the Venice Vintage motorcycle club as well.

Born Free 4
Born Free is a young, but massively growing vintage motorcycle show in southern California. Photographer Chris Cullen who, shot these photos at Born Free 4, shares his images with Her Majesty's Thunder. I've included some British highlights below, but click on over to his Flickr page for loads of killer custom bikes. More pics over at the Mooneyes site as well.

Cafe Racer Genova Short
Shot and edited by Ugo Roffi, a member of the Cafe Racer Genova motorcycle club. Excellent vocals and instrumentals by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
What I love about this is.... almost everything. The look of the film is like a graphic novel. The fog, the lights, the leather, the goggles, the white scarves, the old motorcycles.... And the music - freaking genius.
