hi there, im a little confused at the moment and was wondering if anybody on here can clear things up for me.
i bought what i thought was a 1953 bsa a7 star twin with a 1947 a7 longstroke engine. i sent for a dating certificate from the bsa owners club but on the certificate has come back saying its a 1953 650cc a10 golden flash frame with a 1947 a7 engine
. the frame number on my bike states...
BA7.S.1086*(five numbers long *to replace last digit). i had a look on the bsa owners club frame and engine number listings
http://www.bsaownersclub.co.uk/Engine_Frame_Listing.htmland acording to that it says BA7S.101 is a star twin plunger.
and surley a bsa a10 golden flash would start with a frame number of BA10 no ?.
slight difference in the format of my frame number and the frame numbers on the bsa owners club website also.
my frame number format is......
BA7
.S
.1086*
and website frame number format is.....
BA7S
.101
my frame number has 2 dot's stamped, 1 before the "s" and 1 after the "s"the website frame number only having 1 dot after the "s".
so is my bike a a7 star twin, a standard a7 or a a10 golden flash. cheers in advance fella's. all the best, chicago
