THE B S.A.—FAVOURITE WITH 1111,1. TARY DISPATCH EIDERS-AND WHY. It lias sometimes been eeia, with much' truth, that the business test is the best test of any motor. War is tho grimmest business of mankind, ind tie military motor-cyclist stakes his li;e, very often, upon the reliability of his mount. Here is what Sorgeant K. E. Schofield, R.E., 6enior instructor of the Motor-cycle Seo. tion at Aldershot, has to say:—"Nearly every dispatch rider that has k'one f 0 the front has passed through my hands, and I an therefore in a position to judge linw tho different makes of machine aTe in favour. The B.S.A. is ljy far away the favourite, and it has yet to happfe that a B-S'-A. has failed to act up to its well-earned repute. . . . I uiay state that 50 per cent, of the machines here are B S A.'s." A motor-cyclist with the Second Cavalry Division, British Expedition, dry Force, writes in a-private letter: "Th« roads are hellish. . . . My B.S.A. is tho goods. I never have to touch it. They are the bikes, my boy. They knock th# — and any other make you like to men. tion into a cocked hat. There aro plentj? of other letters from the fro-it, all to tho same effect. Wo are landing 20 of th« latost model B.vj.A. s ex e.s. Marlborough this week, and can give immediate de. livery. They are ideal machines for either solo or side-car service, and their reliability is famous. Tlk h.p. is 4J, and thn three-speed countershaft gear is' foolproof and wonderfully efficient.
