This has recently come up in the small ads. A very original USA spec BSA B25 Starfire. That is the original colour. I had considered driving the hour or so to take a look but sadly I think it would be too small for me. Probably a nice little old Brit to potter around locally on though. Do you remember this export version model DFS?

Orange coloured bikes in the UK were C25 Barracudas but were called Starfires in USA our Barracudas had an extra 1 bhp @ 25bhp and had single leading shoe front brakes they had fibreglass tanks/side panels and looked nicer than the steel option on the later UK bikes like one I bought new in 1970 exhausts were on right beside in UK commonly known as the “hand grenade” due to most of them exploding 😂😂 the UK one you showed me Nick disappeared just after I viewed it~you didn’t did you🙀😬
