THE B SA.-FAVOtJRITE WITH MIL& TARY DISPATCH EIDERS—AND. - WHY. ./ ■ ; ' .i-' It iiiis sometimes bean said, with muoti truth', that the business test ia the best' test of any motor. War ia the grimmest business of mankind, and the military " 'motor-cyclist atakca. his life, very;, often, upon the reliability of his mount. Hera is what Sergeant It. E. Schofield, E. 8., ■ •senior instructor of the Motor-cycle Seo< tion at Aldetshot. has to say:-"Neariy every dispatch, rider that has gone to tho front has passod .throujfh my hands, and I ar™ therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machine ara ■ in'favour. Tho B.S.A. is by far awaj| ■ 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 or® B.S.A.'s." ; A .motor-cyclist with the Sew ond Cavalry Division, British Expedition* ary Forco, writes m a private letter: "Thft. roads are hellish. ... .. My B.S.A. is thft - goods. I never have to touch it. They " are the bikes, my boy. They, knock the —- and any other make you like to nioiw tion into a cooked hat." There aTe plenty, of other letters from the front, all to the same.effect. We are landing 20 of tha latest niodel B.S.A.'s ex b.s. Marlboroughl this week, and can give immediate dew , livery. They are ideal machines fo# either eolo or side-car service, end their reliability is famous. The h.p.'is 4}, ond ' the three-speed countershaft gear is fool' proof and wonderfully efficient.
