Title: BSA 1955 C12 USA Export
Post by: ronnie_u2 on April 04, 2009, 02:58:16 AM

I have a 1955 BSA C12 made for export only?  It has a swing arm.  Want to restore stock.  Looking for more information regarding the bike, can only find one pic on internet.

Also I need a few parts; tool box, headlight shroud, etc.  Other than that I am ready to go.

Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Ronnie  :)  (female)

BSA Singles Restoration by Roy Bacon is a very good reference and recommended for colour schemes and so forth

Is it a c11G or a c12 as C12 wasn't listed until 1956 (BSAOC website)
I've got an old owners manual for a C12 if you are interested - had a C12 for a couple of years in the mid 70s?
