This one is a BSA B40 WD
It´s manufactered from '66 to '72
It's original an army bike
WD means War Department
For the road it was called a B40 STAR
The Star looked different than this WD one
So this one was changed in a 60's (little bit of a)
caferacer trim.
But it had the looks of a Rocker bike, that's for sure
The blue grey colour was very nice to look at.
So you see, not everything has to be chrome or polished
