powerful brakes that give you the confidence
to handle any emergency.
Watch the new 9,000 r.p.m. tachometer on the

its newly designed crankshaft forged of molyb-
denum superstrength steel. You get even more
power from new type cam ground pistons and
opened-out intake ports. Quicker acceleration
comes from an improved gear change mecha-

other parts in chrome or polished alloy com-
pliment the new blazing metallic red finish on
tank top and new-form side nacelle panels.

gentleman. The 1965 BSA LIGHTNING
Rocket—a man’s motorcycle. Your BSA dealer
will gladly show you what we mean.
