THE LEADING BRITISH MOTOR CYCLE. Britain has the reputation of turning out better motor cycles than any other country, and the "8.5.A." stands in the lead of British motor cycles. Although the "8.5.A." factories are filling big contracts for guns, munitions and military motor cycles, the oversea trade in motor -cycles is being maintained in an endeavour to hold the market for British goods against a tidal wave of neutral exports. The New Zealand sales of B.S.A. motor cycles have been fully maintained ever since the war started, and it is therefore not necessary to ask for support for the "B.S.A. 51 on patriotic grounds. We claim support for the "8.5.A." because it is the best all-round machine in the world, and because it has proved, its elaim to the title in open competition under solo, side car, speed, reliability, and hill-climbing tests. The "8.5.A." is a single-cylinder machine of 4% h.p. rating, with a beautifully strong and simple 3-speed gear. It is of moderate weight, and runs at a very low cost. Engine efficiency and the best gear system on the market make it an ideal side car machine. It holds the side-car championship of the South Island. We can give immediate delivery with either combined belt and chain drive or complete enclosed chain drive. Write for catalogues.—Adams Limited, agents for "8.5.A." Motor Cycles. C. J.
