The Birmingham Small Arms factory was established in the Small Heath area of Birmingham in 1861 and as the name suggests manufactured weapons. Around the turn of the century, they started making bicycles and progressed onto motorcycles a few years later. BSA went on to become one of the world's largest producers of motorcycles up until its demise in the early 1970s. In the immediate post-depression years there was a pressing need for cheap transportation and BSA's B2 model was designed as a utility vehicle to satisfy that market.
On offer is a very original 1934 BSA B2 complete with its factory-fitted advance and retard twist grip and throttle. Also presenting in a very original patina and paint finish, the machine has resided with the current owner for a good few years. Used and maintained in his ownership, it benefitted from a complete mechanical overhaul in 2014 before being laid-up due to the use of another bike. It is offered with a current V5C and sundry paperwork.
