Product Description

Product Description

The diminutive BSA Bantam is one of the icons of British motoring in the 20th century. It was not fast, glamorous or particularly well-built; but it was cheap, easy to ride and reasonably reliable. It was an introduction to motoring for 1000s of men and women in the 1950s and 60s and it still holds a an important place in the memory of many. This book charts the huge success of the little bike from Birmingham that started its life in pre-war Germany and went on to conquer the world. It includes a full history of the BSA Bantam, special panels on important features and people, and full specifications for major models.

5.0 out of 5 stars BSA Bantam History, 21 Jun 2006

KarlB (Ashford, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: BSA Bantam (Hardcover)
If you are restoring or researching the BSA Bantam then this is a must have book. Full of details and stuffed with pictures from cover to cover it's an ideal shed companion. It covers the whole history of the Bantam and contains plenty of advice for restorers and riders.
