BSA was making V-engined motorbikes before WWII. Would this be one of them?

BSA made the overhead cam 500cc J type for the military but it was rejected. They also made an overhead valve 750, the Y13, from 1936 to 1938. I suspect this is one of the latter.

I thought the Y13 was a 1938 bike but since you say it was already made in 1936, nzcarnerd, I think that, yes, it's a Y13.

hello all,
the BSA in this picture is NOT a BSA Y13 although it has twin exhausts one above the other. The BSA V win used during the war was a BSA E15 or a BSA H15 if it was Under the Royal Air Force services. BSA E15 or H15 500 ccm had the front brake on the right side and BSA Y13 had the front brake on the left hand side. BSA J12 were the civilian models which followed the E15 or H15 as the army did not appreciate 4 open valves. So, to cut short
BSA E15 or H15 had 4 valve springs visible, civilian model of the army bike was a J34-11 built in 1934 both 500 ccm
BSA J12 had 2 Valve springs open and 2 closed (500 ccm)
BSA Y13 had 2 valve springs open and two closed, but it was a 750 ccm
Please check our homepage for BSA Motorcycles J34-11, E15 and Y13 www.bsaonly.wixsite.com/xbsa
Best regards always a pleasure to help
