Title: Hi Everyone
Post by: PaulG on 31 May, 2021, 22:20
Hi All,
I'm new to the club (membership form in the post) and new to this forum and almost new to BSA's.
Some 50 years ago at the age of 15 I bought a 1961 Post Office Bantam for the sum of £5. We lived in a farm cottage down a private road so I was familiar with it
by the time I was 16 and could ride it on the road. I later when finance allowed bought a D7.

Moving on, I was recently given by a relative a D1 that had been covered with a protective layer of dust in his garage since 1965. I believe this to be a 1953 as it has
chromed wheels and the slimmer front mudguard.

Alas it is missing its log book.  :( Need to jump through some hoops to please the DVLA.

Condition is as they say, "ideal for restoration."
