THE B.S.A.—FAVOURITE WITH MILI- ■ TART DISPATCH RIDERS-AND It has sometimes been seid, with much' truth, that the business test is the best test of any motor. War is the grimmest business of mankind, End the military motoT-cyclist stakes his life, very often, upon the reliability of his mount. Here is what Sergeant R. E. Schofield, R.E., senior instructor of the Motor-cycle Section ftt AMershot, has to say :-"Nearly every dispatch rider that has Rone to the front has passed through my hands, and I on therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machine nro 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 may state that 50 por cent, of the machines here are B.S.A.V. A motor-cyclist with the Second Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, writes in a private letter;. "The roads are hellish. . . . My B.S.A. is the goods. I never have to touch it. They ore the bikes, my boy. They knock the and any other make you like to mention into a cocked hat." There mo plenty of other letters from the front, all to tho same effect. Wo are landing 20 of tho latest model B.S'.A.'s ex s.s. Marlborough this week, and can givo immediate delivery. They are ideal machines for either solo or side-car service, and their reliability is famous. Tho h.p. is 41, and tho three-SP-'ed countershaft gear is foolproof and wonderfullv efficient.
