Bsa SR frame FA7 56XX. Engine CA10R 75XX
Delivered to: Michaels Garage , Selby 16 May 1958
Finished in: Gray
I restores my 1958 SR in 1995-1996, when I lived in the Grimsby UK.
It was restores as a 1956 GF, to keep it in “disguise”
Ups, a quick GF
The reason for early style mudguards and round fuel tank logo:
I like the early style much better, then the late style.
The late type nacelle, look like at “tube on a plate” and is a bit odd.
Where the old type “divers helmet” nacelle suits the bike style, and is a typical look from the 50ies
