DESCRIPTION
BSA acquired the Triumph marque in 1951, and the BSA C15 250 cc four stroke was derived from the 200 cc Triumph Tiger Cub, itself coming from the 150cc Terrier. Edward Turner became head of the BSA automotive division and in 1958 BSA introduced the concept of unit construction, where the engine and gearbox were combined in one piece rather than as separate components. The BSA C15 'Star' was the first unit construction model and proved more reliable and economical than its predecessor, the pre-unit BSA C11.
The later engines from 1966 also benefited from rationalisation at BSA when the bottom-end, crankcases, bearings, oil pump with circulation system and gearbox components - were redesigned reflecting the development work in producing Jeff Smith's works Victor from the B40 basis.
This super example with only 1 mile on the clock since a full restoration, is offered with V5 and current MOT at 'no reserve.'
