Special Category for British Motorcycles[edit]

As part of the Motorcycling WikProject I am working though all the missing articles and stubs for British Bikes. To make things easier to sort out there is a special Category:British motorcycles Please add to any British motorcycle pages you find or create. It will also help to keep things organised if you use the Template:Infobox Motorcycle or add it where it is missing. I've linked the Category to the Commons Motorcycles of Britain so you could help with matching pics to articles or adding the missing images to the Commons.

Image[edit]

This Flickr image looks like a C15 to me. Can someone confirm this? If so, I will upload it because it is freely licenced with a CC licence or you can do it yourself with the flickr upload toolserver]. Thanks ww2censor (talk) 15:53, 30 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Was there ever really a C15 Starfire? Surely not. Isn't the image just a B25 with a C15 engine fitted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Markandrewberry (talkcontribs) 22:20, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Markandrewberry: The C15S (scrambles) was marked in the US as a "Starfire" in the early 1960s. There was also a road legal US version called the Starfire Roadster. See http://www.bsansw.org.au/BSA2016/catalogues/1965-us-catalog/65c-8/ --John B123 (talk) 09:58, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I sold some leathers to a chap in 2019 who had a (show condition) roadster Starfire (amongst other machines), stated it to be before Barracuda. From what I remember of his phone-screen image, it looked liked a bling-ed C15.--Rocknrollmancer (talk) 14:54, 28 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
