Title: Please help me ID the model number of this BSA
Post by: Glynbarrett on February 26, 2014, 10:09:16 PM

Hello. My dad used to ride a BSA.  This is a picture of my mum on the bike, I am guessing in the late 50's. Can you suggest the model of the bike please.
Thanks

It's a BSA Bantam (D5 ??).

Thanks for your help. My mum said the photo was taken in 1958 or 1959. So the 1958 Bantam D5 seems to fit. Appreciate your response
