Re: BSA OHV prototype

The WM23 was the 'Silver Star' for the 1940 Model year but most seem to have been despatched around February / March 1940. Of the 200-odd produced (there were some gaps though) it looks as if 17 went to either of the two Australian agents in Adelaide and Freemantle.

Re: BSA OHV prototype

Some were impressed according to the Australian Army Registration books on line.
