| !Fast Bsa Bantam seeks rider!
Bantam water cooled reed valve disc brake all the normal bits and peices however engine made and prepared ready for 2007 by Trevor Amos! This bike still holds the Lydden Hill lap record at 48.2 secs(1998) when it's rider was a certain Mr Carkeek. This bike is rapid! Interested parties please contact Steven Hall on 01536 418334 ........ | |

| Peter its not just your 3rd place that could be upset? It could be everyones places? Anyway Ian's bike is sorted, Ted's building Mick a new motor, I should have a new motor mid season and Robbie has been busy too ! You will have to start your long over-due alloy barrelled missile | |

| Has anyone come forward to ride this lovely Bantam ? I have not heard I thought perhaps some of the 175ers may have fancied it ? | |

| Hi Mike, this is Miki. We thought you ought to be the first to know that Phil has been offered the ride for this year, although it may not be ready till mid season but Phil has decided to start the season on my 125 anyway and I will be riding his 175. The winds of change are blowing in Cornwall at the moment! Miki. | |

| Miki! Did you say Cornwall -- Mousehole, Mullion and Cadgewith --were my favourite drinking holes! Half century ago -- of course! In corporate madness they lobbied for fairings and reed valves - the 175 is closer to a real Bantam. All the best, JB. | |

Good on ya Miki and Phil I think you'll both go well on them. phil had a great season and deserves a run on this bike and from what I saw of you Miki you just needed a bit more power to get you up there. As for me, too fat and slow to do any justice to even my own bike, but I'll make the odd appearance just to humour myself | |
