Picked this one up today. Thought it was just another BC 1100 until I looked at the early four number lightning bolt badge and saw the early rear axle adjusters and two piece sprocket. I don't believe that it's older than a 1966 because it doesn't have the external springs on the forks or the longer seat that I've seen in the old ads. It also has a bendix brake on it. The mount on the kickstand looks different than others that I've seen. I would like to think that this should have a briggs on it, any bonanza experts have any thoughts on the subject
?

Yes somebody cut the jackshaft plates off and welded on a battery tray and some other tabs up behind the seat. I also just noticed that the seat has eleven pleats and measures about 19" and my BC1300sh has ten pleats and measures about 18"
