Overview |
Motociclismo |
According to the museum's fact sheet "BSA's 650
twin was a very popular touring machine, often seen with a sidecar attached.
The polychromatic beige paint was a radical departure from the traditional
black. With mild cam timing and relatively low 7 to 1 compression ratio, the
Golden Flash gave outstanding flexibility, with a performance of 30 to nearly
100 m.p.h. in high gear."
