The bike armed with explosive rockets,ridden by evil Bond-girl Fiona Volpe(roled by Italian actress Luciana Paluzzi);a trick into movie was that of make believe that bike was ridden by a woman,really,while,the stunt was done making drive the bike in motorway scene by a leather-clad-in biker-suit man;the unique scenes played with the woman and the bike together were these when throw away the same in a ravine,after killing mission

After blowing up the car, Fiona gets rid of the bike by dumping it into a lake.

Should we upgrade this to 3 stars, given its rather dramatic use?

Registration is BOJ443C, but this doesn't appear on the DVLA database.

Not if it is used just for that scene (though that I do not know if it is short or not).

The bike spends less than a minute on screen, if you want to you can watch the scene here (the bike appears at 4:20) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ery7cZ47mG4&feature=related

Issued Birmingham in 1965, so probably genuine. As the B in BSA stood for Birmingham it could have been factory-provided??

This is assuredly a three-star vehicle.
