The BSA Super Rocket was a 646cc air-cooled parallel-twin motorcycle produced by Birmingham Small Arms Company (BSA) at Small Heath, Birmingham introduced in 1957. It was an improved 'sports bike' member of the BSA A10 series of motorcycles which was developed from the BSA Road Rocket. The A10 had a reputation for reliability but was struggling to compete against the Triumph engines and the Norton featherbed frames.

On offer is a 1962 BSA Super Rocket that was purchased by the current owner in 2010. In his ownership, the bike has given him many years of pleasure on local club runs and rides to the coast. The BSA was restored approximately 20 years ago with the engine reputed to have been overhauled by SRM at that time. Now showing some signs of use, the restoration is still holding up well. The Super Rocket is offered complete with a current V5C, lots of old MOT certificates and some receipts for parts.
