BSA Bantam - now that takes me back. My only experience with water as
a fuel was when my old Ford 2000 diesel tractor was hard to start and
produced masses of smoke. Turned out the tank had built up a high
water content from decades of condensation. Drain the fuel, flush
everything out, replace the fuel filter, no problem.
I vaguely remember, 50 - 60 years ago, seeing ads in Popular Mechanics
for water injection (and also other weird petrol-saving gadgets). Or
was it Popular Science? Ah the memories - all sparked by Keith
mentioning the Bantam (I never owned one - I had a bike called a Sun,
with a Villiers engine. But the Bantams looked and sounded better.
And, like many motor bike users, one day I suddenly found myself on my
back in the traffic as my bike disappeared under the car which bumped
me.
