The Birmingham Small Arms factory was established in the Small Heath area of Birmingham 1861 and as the name suggests manufactured weapons. Around the turn of the century they started making bicycles and progressed onto motorcycles a few years later. BSA went on to be one of the world's largest producers of motorcycles up until their demise in the early 1970s. Famous for the larger capacity twins like the RGS and sporty singles like the classic Gold Star range, one of the more popular models produced was the 250cc C11, a good solid reliable bike that many 1950s enthusiasts began motorcycling on.

This C11 has been part of an enthusiast’s private collection of classic bikes spanning the decades from the 1950s to the early 2000s. Unfortunately, due to ill health, he can no longer ride and maintain the bikes so he reluctantly has to let them find new homes. Not run for a number of years they have been carefully stored in a dry building but will all need recommissioning before use. The bike is the classic mid 1950s BSA layout of telescopic front forks and plunger rear suspension, an older restoration it is presented in standard trim. Once recommissioned it will make a very useable and lightweight bike for vintage runs and rallies and comes supplied with a buff log book, dating letter, manuals, receipts, old MOTs and a current V5C.
