The Gold Cup Classic & Performance Car & Motorcycle Auction
1959 BSA Bantam D7 Super
**NO RESERVE**
Registration - TMW 649
Chassis No. - D75128
M.O.T. - Exempt
Odometer - 11,646
The vendor acquired this handsome Bantam in 2013, prior to which it had apparently been a multiple award winner and displayed at the Stafford Classic Bike Show. In 2014 it was treated to a complete replacement of the crankshaft assembly, and the vendor presently regards the 175cc two-stroke engine, three-speed gearbox, frame, suspension, cycle parts and paintwork as all being in ‘excellent’ order – especially the black and cream tank and brightwork which he describes as ‘superb’. The machine currently indicates a total mileage of 11,646 and is being sold at No Reserve. A development of the D5 Super, the D7 was introduced in 1959 and remained in production until 1966. While its 175cc two-stroke engine was similar to that of the D5, the newcomer had an entirely new swinging arm frame and hydraulically damped forks that incorporated a nacelle-mounted headlamp. With 7.4bhp on tap, the D7 had a top speed of c.57mph.
