The BSA factory was established in Birmingham in 1861 and went on to become one of the world's largest producers of motorcycles. The B25 range was the last of a long line of ‘learner legal’ 250s offered by BSA, with a simple tried and tested single-cylinder OHV engine developing around 20bhp. The Starfire was the sporty model in the range, sharing many cycle parts with the B44 Victor Roadster including a fibreglass tank and a seat with a rear hump. Front forks were two-way damped and rubber gaiters fitted instead of the metal covers of the C15 and the rear shock absorbers were now exposed. Chrome mudguards and a chrome headlight shell added to the style and in 1969, in common with other machines in the BSA/Triumph range, a new 7" twin leading shoe front brake was fitted.
Part of a deceased estate, according to the V5C this B25 has only had one owner from new, and from what his son can remember was the first bike in his father's eventual small collection of BSAs and Triumphs. Whilst a top-selling bike in its day, not many B25s have survived in this authentic and mostly original condition. Stood for a few years, it will need recommissioning before use and is offered with a current V5C.
