jthb b.s.a.-favourite with milx. ; DISPATCH, EIDERS—AND, I WHY. • - ''' J It has sometimes been said,' with much truth, that the business test is the best . test of any motor. War. is the grimmest business of mankind, and' the military motor-cyclist stakes his life, Tery often, upon the reliability of his mount. Here is what Sergeant -B. E. Schofield, 8.E., senior instructor of'the Motor-cycle Section at Aldershot, has to say:—"Nearly every dispatch rider that has gone to the 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 the favourite, and it has .yet to happen that a B.S.A. has failed to act up to its , rt&ll-earned- repute. ... I may state that SO per cent, of the machines, here aro B.S.A.'s." A .motor-cyclist with, the Second' Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, writes in a private letter: "The A>ads are hellish. . . . My B.S.A. is the goods. 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 other letters from the front, all to the same effect. We are landiDg 20 of the latest model B.S.A.'s ex e.s. Marlborough this week, and can give im mediate delivery. . They are ideal - machines for either solo or side-car service, and their' reliability is famous. The h.p. is 4i, and the three-speed oountershaft gear is foolproof and wonderfully efficient.
