1960 BSA C15, 249cc. Registration number 243 ALD. Frame number painted over (see text). Engine number C15 13852.
In September 1958 BSA introduced a new ‘250’ that would provide the basis for an entire range of singles in capacities up to 500cc. This newcomer, the C15, featured a compact overhead-valve engine and unitary four-speed gearbox. Alternator electrics and coil ignition were features, early models being distinguished by a distributor-type points housing. The engine/gearbox unit was housed in a conventional cradle frame with bolt-on rear subframe. Trials and scrambles versions were offered as the range expanded during the 1960s.
ALD was owned by Antony Leabesley from 2013 before being bought by our vendor in 2016. It has been fully restored and only covered some 66 settling in miles, it will require recommissioning before road use.
Sold with the V5C which states the frame number to be C15 13404.
