You may be able to date it via the components [if they seem original]. If it's got ally rims I'd put it [without a piccy] at 60's to 70's. The trouble is BSA made bikes from the very early days of the industry [a lot of their m/cycles used cycle thread bolts] and often made big parts "in house".

Thankx for your replies it has chrome rims and quite heavy ones, I am having one trued up has a slight buckle and 2 missing spokes, I will get the gear name as this may help someone date it, oh yes and has chrome metal handlebars too with chrome metal mudguards but the guards could have been added later I guess,
