BSA Bantam Major Tank 1954-57 transfer
TANK TRANSFERS FOR B.S.A. BANTAM
MODELS D3 1954-57, D5 1958 & D7 1959
When preparing the artwork for the above transfers we were working from a small strip of surviving unused originals. They are all of one hand with the Bantam Cock facing to the right.
On checking works photographs to see if we could ascertain the correct layout for the other hand we could find no evidence that they were actually made as pairs and the few pictures we could find of the left hand side of these models show the Bantam Cock always facing the back of the machine. We refer restorers to the works photograph of a 1959 D7 in the B.S.A. Singles Restoration Guide by Roy Bacon (page 140).
Unless new evidence comes to light by way of surviving original transfers, works photograph etc. then we shall continue to offer these transfers as one hand only.
Please note that the V.M.C.C. Transfer Service were offering these as a pair at one time, 12 or more years ago, but as the then Transfer Secretary Dickie Dent is no longer with us it is not possible to check his information. This of course only confuses the situation.
In passing we would mention that we asked Ken Hallworth to check through the original press and publicity archives at the Classic Motor Cycle Magazine – his searches came to exactly the same conclusion as ourselves.
We trust this clarifies the matter.

Waterslide Transfer Instructions
We only use the highest quality materials available to produce our transfers. Four figure reference numbers refer to our waterslide stock and four figure reference numbers suffixed with 'LC' refer to our higher performance grade (50 micron) vinyl transfers. We supply scrap vinyl 'LC' orders so that you can test your varnish/lacquer out. Please contact us if you wish for some waterslide scrap.
If you wish to return your transfers you can send them back to us at: The Pin Mill, New Street, Charfield, GL12 8ES without delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you tell us you wish to return your order. The deadline is met as long as you post the items before the period of 14 days has expired as we recognise that sending your order back from countries such as the U.S.A and/or Australia etc.. can take weeks. You agree that you will have to bear the cost of returning goods. The transfers need to be in their original condition for us to accept refunds. Customers are only entitled to request a refund within 6 months of purchasing the goods.
