1963 BSA B40 Star, 343cc. Registration number 369 DJU. Frame number B40 6039. Engine number B40 5042.
The B40 was a larger engined version of the C15 and was first produced during 1961 continuing in production until the end of the 1967. It used the same 70 mm stroke as the C15 engine but the bore was increased from 67 mm to 79 mm to give a capacity of 343 cc. In terms of cycle parts, the main difference was that the B40 used larger 18″ wheels front and rear compared with the 17″ wheels on the C15.
DJU was owned by Alan Brereton in 2006 before our vendor bought it in 2016. He has replaced the engine and gearbox gaskets. At this time it had just had an MOT at 15,928 miles, today it shows 6,967 miles and appears to have been fully restored and hardly used since, it will require recommissioning before road use.
Sold with the V5C, 2016 MOT, receipts for gaskets, workshop manual.
