I have a 1973 BSA 441 Victor motorcycle that has Lucas, Smiths, and Amal parts on it. So aside from the fact that the shift and the brake are on the opposite sides of all other bikes, I'm plagued with
Lucas, the God of Darkness
Smiths, the God of Non-functioning
and
Amal, the only carburetor that I know of that you actually need to have raw gas pour out of the throat in order to start the engine.
Gotta love the British...

Lucas makes refrigerators also
