In them, our engineers offer the most advanced motorcycles in our history, including all the latest race-developed improvements.

And these are just some of the improvements. We believe you'll agree that for 1972, BSA offers you the finest machines on the market today.

1947 BSA 500 O.H.V. Twin Model A7

B.S.A. 30 Cu. In. Vertical Twin A-7. It's here in the U.S.A. Not just a gleam in a designer's eye. Not just lines on the white paper of a drawing board. Not just a job "We may bring out in '48 - if" but B.S.A.'s bran' new from stem to stern conception of what a Vertical Twin needs to be -and it's here now! Clean as a whistle - no external oil leads or push rod covers. More easily and more economically serviced, wheels quickly detachable and interchangeable. Tanks come off and go on again in forty seconds flat to decarbonize. Geared oil pump, timed breather, tubular hydraulic fork designed as a unit with the frame, and, an overall weight of 365 pounds go to make this the finest sporting motorcycle the world has ever seen. Investigate before you invest. It's better to be sure than sorry. See the B.S.A. vertical twin at your B.S.A.-Sunbeam dealers store today. Sole Importers Rich Child Cycle Co., Inc.
