Siantar people too, especially BSA motorcycle owners, began to learn to dissect the BSA engine.

They can create their own parts for motor BSA. There are several mini-factories that can produce BSA motorcycle spare parts in Siantar. Starting from the carburetor, to the rim. With a little creativity, Kawasaki Binter disulaplah carburetor into the carburetor BSA. Also, do not be surprised to see the rim and an old motorcycle engine block was kinclong tub motor output current year. Pedicab BSA was still tough to explore the streets in the City Siantar.
