THE B SX-FAVOURITE WITH Mill. TARY DISPATCH EIDEKS—AND WHY. , . , It lias sometimes been said, ivith much, truth that the business test is the best test of any motor. War is the grimmest business of mankind, and tlis military, motor-cyclist stakes his life, very often, upon the reliability of his mount. Hore is what Sergeant R. E. Schofield, E.E., 6onior instructor of the Motor-cycle Section at Aldershot, has to say:—"Nearly every dispatch rider that has gone to the front has passed through, my hands, and I am therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machine are in favour. Tho B.S.A. is by far away tho favourite, and it lias yet to happen that a B.S.A. has failed to act up to its well-earned repute. ... I may state that 50 per cent, of the machines here are B.S.A.'s." A .motorcyclist with! the Second Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, writes ill a private letter: "The roads aro hellish. . . . My B.S.A. is the goods. I nover have to touch it. They aro the bikes, my boy. 'l'hcy knock the — and any other mako you like to mention into a cocked hat." There aro plenty of other letters from tlio front, all to the same effect. "We are landing 20 of the latest model B.S.A.'s ex s.s. Marlborough' this week, and can give immediate delivery. They are ideal machines for either solo or side-car service, jind their reliability is famous. Tho h.p. is i\, and the three-speed countershaft gear is foolproof and wonderfully efficient.
