Following Triumph's lead, BSA turned to unitary construction for its range of twins as the 1960s dawned, launching the all-new 500cc A50 and 650cc A65 'Star' models in January 1962. When the range was revised for 1965, the touring twins were renamed 'Royal Star' (A50) and 'Thunderbolt' (A65) respectively. Although a little less powerful than the A65, the A50 was lighter in weight and smoother running than its bigger brother, to which, engine capacity excepted, it was otherwise identical.

This 1968 model was imported and first registered in the UK on 9th April 1996. More recently the BSA has formed part of a private collection and is offered in good condition throughout. The paintwork and chromework are in very presentable order making for a very nice example and the seat is showing no real signs of age. Offered without reserve, this well looked after British classic is ready to be enjoyed by its new owner. Consigned by Daniel Godin
