I'm not at all specialised in BSAs, although I have a keen interest in any of the BEF's motorcycles but my gen. rather stops there.

However, Orchard & Madden list allocate the 200 machines to C10655 as Ron says.

It might be interesting if Henk can check if the MoS destination only applies to 200. By this time in the war, the Ministry of Supply had taken over purchasing of vehicles from the Air Ministry as well as the Army.

Have we ever seen images of a solo M20 in RAF service ? There were solo Nortons early on, later only outfits I think. They seem to have switched to OHV 350s as solo machines (mainly Ariels and WD/COs)

Hi Rik

Yes there are several wartime pictures of solo RAF M20s without sidecar lugs and with 19inch wheels.

Ron's former outfit above looks like it would benefit from a stronger fork spring, which is something that's been worrying me about my M20 GPO combination.

I've just been comparing the RAF parts list with a standard list, and it does give a different part number for the fork spring and the wheels. Ron
