THE B.S.A.—FAVOURITE WITEMILI. TAUT DISPATCH EIDERS—AND WHY. It has sometimes "been eeiu, with much' truth, that the business test is the best test of any motor. War is tho grimmest business of mankind, end the military motor-cyclist stakes his lice, very often, upon the reliability of his mount. Here is what Sergeant R. E. Sohofield, R.E., senior instructor of the Motor-cycle Sec. tion at Aldershot, has to say:-"Nearly overy dispatch rider that has gone to th« front has passed through my hands, and I am therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machine are in favour. The B.S.A. is by far away tho favourite, and it has yet to happen that a B.S.A. has failed to act up to its well-earned repute. . . .1 may stato that 50 per cent, of the machines here are B B.A.'b. A motor-cyclist with the Second Cavalry Division, British Expedition, ory Force, writes in a private letter: "The ' roads are hellish. . . . My B.S.A. is tho noods. I never have to touch it. They are the .bikes, my boy. They knock the — and any other make you like to mention into a cocked hat." There are plenty of othor letters from the front, all to the eame effect. We are landing 20 of the latest model B.S.A.'s ex e.s. Marlborough this week, and can jivo immediate de. livery. They are ideal machines for either solo or side-car servico, and their reliability is famouo. Thi b.p. is 4J, and thn three-speed countershaft gear is fool* proof and. wonderfully efficiont.
