Description

  • The alloy-engined Clipper was essentially an export version of the B34 competition model
  • According to BSA, the US-market Clipper was "a stripped-for-action Scrambles, Cross Country and general purpose sports mount"
  • This is a correct-numbers machine on offer from a private collection
  • Complete with its original oil tank and competition Lucas magneto
  • Unregistered but complete with NOVA
  • Dry stored indoors for last few years so therefore may require some recommissioning
  • Less than 800 of these were built with only a handful left in the UK. An important part of BSA's Competition history.
