The BSA C15 was a 250 cc single-cylinder overhead valve motorcycle made by the British company BSA from September 1958 until 1967, and was the company's first four-stroke unit construction bike. It was derived from the 200 cc Triumph Tiger Cub after BSA acquired the Triumph marque in 1951, and it replaced the pre-unit C11 with a redesigned frame and engine. After the Learner Laws of 1961 a 250 cc machine was the largest solo motorcycle a learner could ride unaccompanied in the United Kingdom. With only 15 bhp it struggled against Japanese rivals such as the Honda CB72, and sports, trials and scrambles versions were also built. In 1967 the BSA B25 Starfire and C25 Barracuda succeeded it.
