The last battery that iIbought was for A BSA C15. I went to my local "modern" motorcycle shop and they looked up the battery from a suppliers directory and ordered one for me. You can order dry batteries from any of the BSA supplier, but you then have to get the acid, unless you choose one of the modern gel filled ones.
