Now this reminded me of an article in a magazine I read back in the late
70's, they were talking about the necessary lights on the instrument cluster
of a bike. They had about 25 lights on their ultimate cluster, one of which
was the letters BSA in a white circle. When you went to the glossary below
to look up what this light meant, the definition was something like, "An oil
leak has arizen, resulting in mass comsumption and complete oiling of the
rider, highway, nearby wildlife and vegetation and destruction of all
internal moving parts of the engine." Did BSA's actually leak that bad?
