My late father had one in the 1930s, always talked about it with regret! The War interfered with his hobby and he never owned a motorbike again. But he did develop a fondness for Jaguar cars, so I guess he got his Mojo back! And he helped me to buy a Sunbeam S7 Deluxe when I was just 16!
Now that's a _real_ motorbike. That look, that sound, that profile, that "feel" is the very definition of what comes to mind upon hearing the word. Only problem is, now I want one. Another for the list of things I'll probably never own... only because there's a finite amount of space to put things in and it's physically impossible to ride more than one thing at a time.
Lovely old bike. Nice slow revving engine, deep exhaust note and quiet mechanicals. Just the job.

BSA Sloper is my dream. So few exist here in India but, I will buy one. Hand shift perfection!
Hello is the BSA sloper 600 still for sale ? Kind regards Jack
Didn’t see much more than concrete as the bike rode and came back… try again!
I'll have a word with the camera man 🤔
