1965 Beeser Lighting
Jesse Bassett is the owner of The GasBox, a vintage motorcycle shop in Lakewood, Ohio, just won the Freestyle Class at the ‘Ultimate Builder’ AMD Championship affiliate event in Cleveland. The bike took two years to build and is a 1965 model—from the early days of Lightning production—although you’d be hard pressed to tell. The frame has been modified with a hardtail, and the girder forks are from a pre-WWII BSA M20. Handmade parts abound, and serious levels of craftsmanship are evident—from the exhaust fabrication to the diecast bronze gold flash tank emblems. Just beautiful. [Images by Scott Pease Photography.]
