The BSA C15T was a successful 250cc trials motorcycle produced from 1959 to 1965, designed with a host of off-road features such as a high-clearance reinforced frame, 20in front wheel, energy-transfer electrical system, low-ratio gearbox and high-level exhaust. Important features of its engine included a special camshaft for more low-end torque and a stronger roller big-end bearing.

This C15T was one of the most significant machines in the career of the late Norman Crump, from whose estate it is offered for sale. Mr. Crump was an exceptionally active trials rider during the 1950s, ’60s and ’70s, and in his later years invested his energy in collecting and restoring historic motorcycles. Used extensively by Mr. Crump in period, this machine benefitted from a number of his own modifications to improve its handling. Having now been out of use for a number of years, this historic BSA will require some recommissioning, but the engine turns over with compression and all the gears select. Offered without documentation, the C15T promises to make a very rewarding project which fully deserves to be seen on the trials slopes once again. There is no accompanying paperwork with this lot.
