A65 Seat

What seat did the early A65's have. When was the Humpy seat first used.

The early A65 had a plain twin seat part No 68-9024. I believe the hump seat was first used on the 1966 Lightning and Spitfire models but was used on the 1967 Thunderbolt. This info is from the BSA A50 A65 models 1962-1972 produced by Roy Bacon.

Hi 

Thanks a lot for that. bril. I had a 67 T'bolt and that had a humpy. Trouble is now knowing if its been changed. I know my 63 A50 has one and 63 A65 but they were obviously not as original.
I'm doing a 64/65 for my son and he would like it to be as original as possible.
