5. In what country were BSA motorcycles produced?

Answer: England

The motorcycle division of Birmingham Small Arms (BSA) was started in 1880. A government forced merger with Norton and Triumph (forming NVT) in 1971 would not be able to save England's oldest motorcycle manufacturer, and production of BSA motorcycles ended in 1973.

6. In what country were 1983 to 1997 year model Can-Am motorcycles produced?

Answer: England

Can-Am was founded in 1973 in Canada as a subsidiary of Bombadier, but the company was sold to CCM, an English motorcycle company in 1983.
