Default To further complicate things

According to my 'one reference"...

Malvern Star received its first Military bike order in 1940.

So if this is a 1939 bike it is more likely a complete BSA bike.

Australia was forced to manufacture all its own components after we were completely cut off from oversea's supplies.

My understanding is Malvern Star copied BSA bike bits once they had used up all the exisiting BSA stock on hand.

Maybe the War Memorial may have records Jack?
