THEY’RE EVEN BETTER FOR 1972
For 1972 Dick Mann wears the No. 1 Grand National Championship plate.
He won it on BSA. Here are three of his favorites: the 650 Lightning,
the Victor Trail 500, and the Victor MX 500.
This year, BSA is making sure the competition won’t catch up—
by constantly improving these already great bikes.
BSA took everything they learned on the AMA Pro Circuit,
and put that know-how into BSA for 1972.
Features like the BSA No-Tank Oil System, race-proven alloy forks
that are lighter and stronger, aluminum alloy brake hubs that run cooler
while reducing unsprung weight, the simple, dependable single
cylinder 500 cc engine. And more.
Here are some entries in the new BSA line-up for 1972.

Check them out today—and Ride The Winner tomorrow.
BSA LIGHTNING 650.
This OHV vertical twin is built
for massive, flexible power.
The twin cylinders are punched
by twin Amal concentric carbs,
each feeding a single cylinder independently.
The double-loop frame uses
the center spine instead of an oil tank,
so saving weight and cooling the oil more efficiently.
The front forks control road shock
through two-way hydraulic damping
that allows 634 inches of travel.
The conical brake hubs decrease weight,
increase strength and dissipate
the heat more rapidly.
If you want lightning response in a bike,
you want a BSA Lightning.
THE VICTOR 500 TRAIL AND THE VICTOR 500 MX
Here’s a pair of winners for off-road riding and motocross competition.
These bikes are streamlined down to the toughest minimum,
and beefed up with mighty 4-stroke engines that deliver
plenty of torque out of every cc.
The special BSA No-Tank oil system runs the lube
through the frame, lightens unsprung weight
along with alloy race-proved racing forks.
Get out on a Victor Trail or a Victor MX—
500’s that let you know
you’re Riding The Winner.
