British Bikes / Re: Help! "New" old BSA Starfire 250

Good tips ccp01:  You won't believe this, but when I took it to the shop, the old mechanic informed me that is NOT 250, instead it is a 441Victor Shooting Star.  The PO said the wrong decals were on the bike (441 Shooting Star decals).  Well, he was wrong.  So now I 191 extra cc's to contend with.

wow

Hello folks:  My 1st post.  Purchased 68 250 BSA Starfire single on Saturday.  I'm relatively old..way  older than the bike.  It has 5,400 orginal miles & is beautiful.   Only problem is it took my 35 minutes to start (yes, it's new fuel) and my leg is still gimpy from kicking.  Also, it only has a center stand and it's really difficult for me to use.
I can afix a side stand?  If so, where can I access one.  Sure hope you can help.
