Found these in some family archives.

My Grandfather, Late Dr. Sridhar Mukund photographed with his motorcycle and friends during his MBBS at Prince of Wales Medical College in the 1950s. The institution is now known as Patna Medical College and Hospital. Does anybody have any idea what bike that could be?

Another superb photo of the Jaguar SS Coupe, bearing old Bombay registration number W 4141. Wonder if it survives somewhere.

Yes, they were certainly built tough in those days!
A gentleman on the forum was kind enough to let me know via PM that this is a BSA M20.
