What year are these.
And who were the maker, BSA was gone by then ?
Looks Italian ?

i think just another case of trying to cash in on a name (but it does look good) i have seen some NVT bikes ,  not nice , but there again bsa tryed it them selves i think with the Gold stars of the 70s , and VW with the beetle , BMW mini ,  morgan Aero , im sure theres more , so who can blame them , there is more than likely a hanger full of NOS Italy ebay would be a good place to look

I don't know about the taper bit, but BSA Bantam fork springs are about 1" diameter (?).
May be able to do something with them ?.  And they are BSA...
