THE B S A.—FAVOURITE WITH MILIJ TART DISPATCH EIDERS—AND. It has sometimes been eeid, with much! truth, that the business test is the best test of any motor. War is the grimmest business of mankind, tnd the military motor-cyclist stakes his life, very often, upon the reliability of.hisi mount. Here is what Sergeant R. E. Schofield, R.E., senior instructor of tho Motor-cycle Section at Aldershot, has to say:- Nearly every dispatch nder that has gone to the front has passed through my hands, and T ian therefore in a position, to judge How the different makes of machine are 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 mov state that 50 per cent, of the machines here aTe BS A V A motor-cyclist with the Seo> ond Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, mites in a private letter: "The roads are hellish. . . . My B.S.A. is the coot's I never have to touch it. They ore the bikes, my boy. Thev knock the . an( l any other make you like to mention into a cocked hat." There are plenty of other- letters from the 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, and their reliability is famous. The h.p. is 41, and tho three-speed countershaft gear is tool* proof and wonderfully efficient.
