1 out of 5 stars BSA   December 2, 2001
Peter K. Swart (Miami)
(...) He blames BSA for the demise of his true love, Triumph. Basically he would be quite happy if BSA had not made anything more sophisticated than the A10. Save your money and buy a decent book on BSAs!!!!!


5 out of 5 stars very usefull history- lacks technical design details   January 20, 1999

Many compliments for your BSA book.First quality pictures from your own hand give perfect but not always real imagination of the bikes as they were introduced to the market. May I suggest to mix these excellent pictures with selection of original material. Your text is pleasant to read and gives in general basic info on the reference bikes. As mentioned I believe that there is a seleced group of readers having special interest in the more technical background of each model. I recall that in the 1950 th the publishers of Motorcycle came with 2 collection books which contained interviews with designer of various models not limited to BSA but covering most of highly interesting designs period 1930 up to 1950 etc. I have never seen these books republished. NB> The BSA Goldstar book by BMS includes typical of this period interview. 5 star rating means that I consider your book value for money- I still enjoy it whenever I open it again. It must have a pleasure to compose it- I am sure that you have a special relation with BSA. So have I worked at Small Heath as an appprentice in 1965! Regards Carl Drees
