Interesting and informative page. Would it be possible to add more information on engine sizes? Also where is the Gold Flash? Cabinscooter 08:07, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Added the Golden Flash and am working though all the missing articles and stubs for British Bikes. To make things easier to sort out I have created a category for British motorcycles. Please will you add to any British motorcycle pages you find or create. It will also help to keep things organised if you use the Template:Infobox Motorcycle or add it where it is missing. I've linked the Category to the Commons British Motorcycles so you could help with matching pics to articles or adding the missing images to the Commons - take your camera next time you go to a rally!

I've tabulated the V-twins, added some more post-war models and rearranged the classifications into what I hope are groups more closely related to each family of engines. I've tried to group post-war B series and M series models with their Second World War and pre-war antecendents, but in the 1930's both series seem to have had both side-valve models and overhead valve models, and the C series evolved in 1938-40 as a re-classification of the 250cc models from the B series. Model designations until 1935 were complex, including B, FF, H, L, R, S, W and X series singles! A new system was introduced for 1936 with B, M, Q, R, W and X series. It was changed again for 1937 onwards to just B and M series, plus the C series from 1938. Anyone who can resolve this into concise, intelligible information on single-cylinder models before the Second World War please do so! Motacilla (talk) 13:11, 4 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You could add a bit about the 550cc K models now I'd guess, I just took photographs of a 550 K from 1913, engine number put it at 5500 engines or there abouts. Think they started around 1910, not sure the last date made http://dogdragons.com/dogdragons/a-2-z/b/bsa/bsa_motorcycles.html — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.21.147.8 (talk) 18:37, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
