Introduced in 1938, the first of BSA's lightweight 'C' range was the C10, a sidevalve single equipped with coil ignition and three-speed hand-change gearbox. A de luxe version with foot change joined the range in 1939 together with an overhead-valve version: the C11. In mid-1946 the original girder fork was replaced by a telescopic unit and part way through 1949 the C10 gained an alloy cylinder head. From 1954 onwards the pair continued as the updated C10L/C11G, with alternator electrics, plunger rear suspension and four-speed gearbox until superseded by the C12 that deployed the same engine/gearbox in a new swinging-arm frame. This BSA C12 was first registered on Jersey and until recently had spent all its life on the island. Offered in need of full restoration and sold strictly as viewed, the machine comes with VMCC dating certificate and Jersey buff logbook (issued 1963). A quantity of spares including a spare engine (number 'BC11G 37013') comes with it.
