The Birmingham Small Arms Company had, by the time World War II broke out, become the largest manufacturer of motorcycles in the United Kingdom. By the early 1960s, BSA was a dominant player on the motorbike stage, exporting to countries all over the world and supplied many of their police and armed forces.
