THE 8.5.A.-EAVOTJKITE WITH MILU A TARY DISPATCH ' KIDBES—ANQ WHY. It has sometimes been said, with mucK truth', that the business test is the bsst test of any motor. War is the grimmest business of mankind, and the military motor-cyclist stakes his life, very often, upon the reliability of his mount. Hera is what Sergeant K. E. Schofield, E.E., senior instructor, of the Motor-cycle' Section at Aldershot, has to say:—"Nearly every dispatch rider that has rone to the front has passed through my hands, and I am therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machino ar® in favour. The B.S.A. is by far away, the favourite, and it has 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.V A-.motor-cyclist with, the Socond Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, writes in o private letter: "The roads are hellish. ... My B.S.A. is tho goods. I never have to touch it. They are the bikes, my boy. They knock tha — and any other make vou like to mention into a cooked hat." There are plenty of other letters from the front, all to the" same offect. 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 foi either solo or side-car service, and their reliability is famous. The h.p. is 4}, end the three-speed countershaft gear is fool-, proof and wonderfully efficient.
