RESERVE REDUCED

  • Authentically presented OIF B25T Trail model
  • Last of the line from the once mighty BSA group
  • A good lightweight and easy to maintain classic

The B25 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. A major redesign in the late 1960s saw the arrival of an oil-in-frame chassis, developed from the competition machines and a high-level box-shaped silencer, Ceriani-type forks and conical wheel hubs. Marketed as an on/off-road bike, the B25T Victor Trail 250 used most of the components of the 250 Gold Star but with an alloy petrol tank, high-level front mudguard with a 6" SLS front brake. The model was only in production for a year until the financial situation of the BSA Group forced a reduction in the model range for 1972 and the 250s were discontinued.

This BSA Victor is part of a deceased estate, so unfortunately not much is known of its history. It is thought to have been bought by its owner many years ago and restored, keeping a good degree of originality, including its distinctive upswept exhaust on its right-hand side. The family has not been able to locate any paperwork or registration documents, so it will need to be registered with the DVLA. It has been stood for several years, so will need recommissioning before use.
