Sterling,

Best bet would be to closely follow pages like ebay and gumtree and also milweb if you wish to import.

Congrats on your purchase Sterlo, the bike looks awsome. If I'm not mistaken I think it has won quite a few trophies at displays/ shows.

Very nice! I bought a WM20 in 1983 and have done thousands of miles on it to events. Had plenty of fun times with it. Good and reliable.

BSA is often said jokingly, to stand for "Bloody Sore A*se" ....... which I can vouch for, along with the crook right knee

You will have to move to NSW here you can get L's at 16 years and 9 months.
Enjoy your bike.

Yeah Victorian motorcycle laws are quite silly. Plus have to wear a fluro vest so that will make my reenactment look stupid. Ahwell laws are laws

Sadly you say? I wager there are a few of us who would trade (age) places with you in a heartbeat. Nice looking bike. Best wishes for many decades of enjoyment. Thanks for sharing.

Possibly the youngest MLU member who has a vehicle? We need a lot more like him or we will have nobody to pass the torches on to.

I am glad to hear of a fellow young enthusiast acquiring a vehicle ! I am 17 myself and am on the hunt for a military vehicle of my own.
Congratulations and enjoy!
Kolten
