hi all,
I have this picture of my dad sitting on a BSA (looks like the BSA-logo on the engine) but we both don't know which model this exactly is. The bike seems to have two exhausts so I assume it's a twin. Although I'm not familiar with BSA-bikes it looks a bit like an A7 if I compare it to some online pictures. But I can't find the exact same bike so maybe I'm wrong on the A7.
I hope some of you guys recognize the model and help us out. Much appreciated!
Regards, Gerben (Netherlands)
It has a badly adjusted 8" front brake usually fitted on the A10s so a 650cc. Age anywhere between 51 and 55.

The rider has the brake lever well pulled on think it would look better positioned if the lever was out .
Once the lever goes passed 90 degrees its efficiency is quite reduced. The brake linings were most likely badly worn.

A7/A10. Bet she was a noisy girl with those chopped of pipes or simply lacking silencers.

It's a nice bike, I've no idea what model but it's be added to/subtracted from I'm sure. But my goodness what a suit! A proper gentleman motorcyclist, I love it. Hope he didn't get too much oil on his trousers :D
Think it is the remnants of a 1953 ish A10 golden flash .
