There is a commercial running in the US that shows a guy broken down on a very cool little vintage bike. He has to load it into the back of his wife's van. The commercial is for the van, but everytime it comes on the only thing I notice is the bike. I know I'm not the only one as my secretary asked me what kind of bike is in the commercial and we agreed we don't even know who makes the van because we are enamored over the bike. I think it's a Dodge commercial.

Can anyone identify the bike?

I've gotten as far as assuming it's a BMW, but despite lurking inches from the TV screen every time that commercial comes on, I'm not even sure of that.

I haven't seen that commercial for a while, and I too cannot remember what cage it was for, but I think the bike is a BSA single.
