INTRODUCTION
This manual hars been compiled to provide comprehensive service information for the B.S.A. owner arld
for the workshop fitter wishing to carry out either basic maintenance or major repair work. The instructions
are written in great detail but, because of the specialised skills and the equipment required to carry out
some of the described repair work, the inexperienced owner is strongly advised to consult his B.S.A. dealer
should he doubt his own ability to carry out a satisfactory job.
The manual is divided into sections dealing with the major assemblies and these are sub-divided into
the individual operations required for maintenance or repair. It is hoped that by using this arrangement,
the manual will be found most useful as a quick work of reference to even the skilled mechanic.
All information and data given in this manual is correct at the time of publication but because of the
constant development of B.S.A. motor cycles, changes in the specifications are inevitable.
Anyone finding this manual to be at variance with the B.S.A. machine in his possession is advised
to contact the Service Department, uhere up-to-date information will be quickly provided"
ENGINE AND FRAME NUMBERS
Both the engine and frame numbers, together with prefix and suffix letters, must be quoted in full on any
correspondence relating to the machine or on any enquiry regarding this manual, to either the dealer or
the Service Department.
The engine number is stamped on the left-hand side ol the crankcase immediately below the cylinder
base. The frame number is stamped on the left-hand steering head support plate, just forward of and below
the fuel tank"

FACTORY SERVICE ARRANGEMENTS
UNITED KINGDOM
REPLACEMENT PARTS
B.S.A. replacement parts and exchange units are distributed through a national network of B.S.A. dealers,
each of whom holds a stock of fast moving parts. Approximately 200 of these dealers have been selected
for appointment as specialist B.S.A. replacement part stockists and each of these stockists holds a compre-
hensive stock of B.S.A. replacement parts.
A complete list of appointed stockists is printed at the end of this manual, and also in every B.S.A.
Parts Catalogue.
REPAIRS
Most appointeC B.S.A. dealers are able to carry out major repair work, and owners are asked to make
all repair arrangements through their chosen dealer.
In the great majority of cases local repair will be possible and this will avoid the expense, inconvenience
and the possibility ol the machine being damaged in transit to or from the Works for repair.
Should your B.S.A. dealer decide that Service Department attention is required he will know best
how to make suitable arrangements with the factory. It is important to remember that no machine can
be accepted at the Works without a prior appointment. This appointment can be made either by letter
or by telephone.
GUARANTEE CLAIMS
In the interests of all conccrned it is best that any owner of a new motor cycle, wishing to claim assistance
under the guarantee, should do so through the dealer from whom his machine was purchased. All B.S.A.
dealers are familiar with the proc€dure designed by B.S.A. to give quick service to any owner of a B.S.A.
motor cycle who may find himself in difficulty.
