This red, 650cc BSA Spitfire has the Goldstar 190mm front brake hub fitted as standard, and the vendor describes the bike as being in “original condition”. It comes dating letter from the BSA Owners' Club, confirming that it was despatched as an A65 Spitfire MkII to R U Holloway & Son, in Bath, and it still retains its original motor. We're told it “starts easily and runs well”, and has benefitted from new pistons, although there are no accompanying receipts.

The dating letter is accompanied by a Haynes workshop manual, and the V5C which records that it was re-registered (with its original number) in 2014. Since then, there have been 2 registered keepers.

The registration number is non-transferable.
