Default Vintage build.

I have an urge to build something antique. I love the old board track bikes which closely resemble what we ride. I have seen these things sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The next project is on its way, I scrounged an old BSA 90cc 4 stroke engine and would like to make a bike like this from scratch as they used to.

Are white tyres still available?
