SUMMARY
A well cared for example of BSA's 1950s sporting 500 twin.
DESCRIPTION
- The A7 500cc OHV Twin was a staple of the BSA range until 1961
- This classically presented example was purchased by our vendor in 2015 from respected BSA dealer/restorer Mark Garside, Lancashire
- The previous keeper was a collector and had owned it since 1995, prior to his purchase it had been off the road for several years
- Four owners from new
- The 'Pale Polychromatic Green' paintwork is certainly older, and maybe original. The tank is dent free and the chrome is nicely patinated.
- Annually serviced by our enthusiastic vendor every Spring. Recent magneto rebuild
- A very usable example that runs and rides beautifully
