Description
1956 BSA 650cc A10 Golden Flash
Registration no. SXK 541
Frame no. BA10 15112
Engine no. BA7S 18851
This wonderfully patinated and conserved plunger-suspension A10 was delivered new to Marble Arch Motor Supplies Ltd on 11th May 1956 and originally was attached to a double-adult sidecar. The original buff logbook lists three private owners, the last of whom, Anthony Charles Farmer of Wantage, acquired the BSA in June 1968. The machine was MoT'd in May 1976 (certificate on file) and shortly afterwards broke a piston ring, after which it was consigned to a shed and forgotten for 30 years. The present owner acquired the BSA in October 2006. The Al0 is fitted with an original Craven carrier, which, unusually, was painted to match the rest of the outfit. Renovation included rebuilding the engine (using new-old-stock parts where possible); rewiring the electrics using the original gauges and light lenses; overhauling the plunger units; painting the frame, plunger units and carrier; removing the sidecar fittings; and fitting an original footrest. The sidecar (49T) rear sprocket was changed for a solo sprocket (42T) while the magneto and dynamo sent for refurbishment by Sean Hawker, who also supplied a modern 6V voltage regulator. The wheels were rebuilt and painted to match. Run within the last two years, and described as mechanically sound, the machine is offered with the aforementioned documentation; a BSA OC dating certificate; expired MoTs and tax discs; 'as found' photographs; and a V5C.
