One of B.S.A.s sideline bikes built by an inferior subsidiary company.

Presumably for those with very little taste in motorcycles?

 Surprised to see a "reverse lever front brake". Remember the debate on pros, cons and  wherefores of the action of the lever in relation to the wheel rotation?  Also driving the speedo from the front wheel is a far simpler scheme.

 Later designs would represent a step backwards in my estimation.
