Great restoration! In the early 80's I bought a 1948 M21 that was partially restored. I did what was required for road registration, and rode the bike on a 612 kilometer round trip first time out!
thanks, great work on bike and photos. I've had a '40 m20 (which came from Egypt) in the shop for years, getting a part here and a part there without much to show for it. I laced the wheels and assembled her into a roller, engine and gearbox together. you've inspired me to get to it--today-and move it along. I've been making things I can't find in the spirit of the resourceful Egyptian mechanics who made so many gaskets and small metal parts, I'm continuing that. so mine won't look factory fresh but may resemble one you'd have seen in the desert during the war. thanks again, John
Thanks for sharing your bike restoration. Fabulous. I’ve done the same on my ES2 restoration. Great to see the oldies still on the road after all these years
A labour of love, what a smashing job you`ve done, Thanks for sharing, They were still using M20s in the British Army in southern England in 1975 and i passed my motorcycle test on one when i was 24, a long story. I bought a new Royal Enfield 500 classic in gun metal with military style canvas panniers 6months ago and im constantly being stopped wherever i go by old guys reminiscing and mums with children they love it and so do i.
There are two types of people in the bike world Robby. One who ride a BSA M21 war bike. Another one who wishes he can ride a BSA M21! Nice one Rob, bringing history back to life, you make the Brits proud.
Ein sehr interessanter Film für mich. Genau jetzt wo ich mich über dieses Motorrad informiere sehe ich Dich wenn du mit dem Toyota yaris so ein Modell transportierst. Ich habe dasselbe Auto😂. Beeindruckend das du jede Schraube in die Hand nimmst und alles zu 100 % in Ordnung bringst. Gut gemacht! Viel Spaß mit dem Ergebnis 👍❤
Great looking bike and appreciate the work involved! Can not wait to see a video of it running! Hope you had better luck than I have with MCA and Doherty parts!
Robby, that's a real inspiration; thank you. I'm (slowly) building a WM21 that left the factory in May 1940. It's army number is close to yours (C4191619). Mine was due for the Dutch army under contract C7370, but didn't make it in time and was also redirected to the War Department. I'd be interested in any history you may discover about your bike. I know that mine was destined for either Colchester or Carrick, but nothing more. Keep her going! Craig
Thanks for your comments. I heared a few more Bikes that were under this contract. I only know mine was destined for egypt but then was redirected to war department London.
Awesome video and great restoration - your video really excites me. I have a WM20 myself that I imported from the US in 2013. It's not in good shape and I'd love to do the same restoration to it, you did here. Man, I could learn so much from your experience on it... I have like 1000 questions on your process there. Like, what kind of primer did you use? And why did you paint the inside of the primary chain housing and the clutch dome? Isn't it partially filled with oil? Where did you get these fresh looking oil pipes for the oil tank, or did you reproduce them yourself? Theres so much more... xD Well done mate, I really admire your work there.
Fan tomas primer is just a good quality oxide primer. Just the primary is a bit filler with oil. No reason why it is painted. I think from factory it is also painted. Oil lines you can buy new/old/repro etc. As long as the function it is good for me. I think i painted them green. But removed the paint again since they were just cadmeded
This bike is over 80 years old, & looks brand new...very nice job! I'd be riding it everywhere! 🖖🏿😎👍🏿

Anthony Keel thanks. Already many great rides with the bike. Have only small bits of it driving but will upload one.

Really appreciate what you did here
Beautiful picture of the beauty in the end 👌

Beautiful
Looked pretty good when you picked it up brother. But looked much better at the end.
a good clean was enough to drive it :D
masss work bro✌✌💐💐🙏🙏
7:25 Can somebody please tell me where is the other end of this tube connected?
I now let it run between the plates to the ground. Before to the sprocket for extra lubrication on the chain
@@Robby163460 Thank you very much sir!
Who gave this video a thumbs down, honestly?!
Nice piece of music
Great video. Thank you. My first bike as a 13 year old from an uncle. I think it had a side car sprocket if that makes sense?
I have 1943 wm20 it’s nearly finished, cannot wait to fire her up for the first time.
Hey sir, do you maybe know where is the other end of this tube connected? It is 7:25 in the video. Please help.
Beauty 👌👌
From where you get this bike egypt ?
From a barn in Germany. Bike was an egyptian contract from 1939
Check out my new BSA video 💪🏻
Super.. in India I have BSA b31 please can you make more videos of BSA bullets videos.
Price ?

@@Robby163460 Sir, can you please help me, where is the other end of tube at 7:25 connected?
Matija Ravnik i made a tube that point at the sprocket so the excess oil will vent on my chain to keep it lubricated
@@Robby163460 Thank you sir, you were the only one who knew the awnser. Btw beautiful rebuild.
What carb and gear box u using
both the originals. Amal 276c-1b and the gearbox is also the WM model.
