A nice, matching numbers example of the model that has been fitted with the high exhaust pipe and front mudguard, knobblie tyres, de-compressor. With the bulb horn fitted through the steering head and Wipac switchgear to resemble the competition models of the period. A very distinctive Bantam that is sold with a current V5C and older versions. Originally supplied to Rigg Garage of Huntington and understood to have been in the same ownership since the 1960s, this bike appears to have been in the Cambridgeshire area its entire life (With thanks to the BSA Bantam Club Dating Officer for supplying some information).
