The design of the BSA Bantam was actually a direct copy of the DKW RT125 which was gifted to BSA as part of the war reparations. It was also copied in America, Russia and Japan. A rugged and reliable little machine it became a best seller and remained a mainstay for BSA from 1948 until 1971.
BRW 604C is one of three Bantams on offer and is a D7 which was registered on the 1st of June 1965. The engine turns over freely and the machine looks to be complete and sound condition.
