1968 BSA Starfire, 250 cc. Registration number CVG 102F. Frame number B25B 2452. Engine number B25B 2452 S (DVLA has B25B 24525).
As a large motorcycle manufacturer, BSA had a wide range of models. They made several utilitarian bikes, including a variety of small displacement singles. Who could forget the 125cc Bantam, beloved by delivery services on both sides of the Atlantic. But America was sporting minded and BSA upgraded its small singles in both styling and performance to capture that market. In 1968, BSA introduced the B25 Starfire, a 250cc single that shared the styling of its larger sporting brethren.
CVG started life as PBD 65F and was first owned by Dennis Smith of Northants, then dealers Walter Wragg Ltd of Mansfield in 1970, Clifford Clarke followed, then Glynn Cooper, Christopher Peacock Stephen Mawby of Kings Lynn in 1974 followed by Jonathon Taylor. An MOT exists for 1974 at 13,451 miles. In 1988 it was re-registered with DVLA an issued the CVG number, an MOT was issued at 15,047 miles. By 2016 it was with a Dr Beer and our vendor bought it in 2018.
In running order but we advise safety checks as its mileage is only 15,138 now so it has had little use.
Sold with the V5C, 2 x V.E.60's Mot's mentioned and various SORN documents.
