2000 Easy Rider M50 Millenium Monkey Bike Bike Year: 2000 Bike Make: Easy Rider Bike Model: M50 Millenium Monkey Bike Bike Reg No.: X571NYG Bike Frame No.: 1000177 Bike Engine No.: 100058 Bike Colour: Chrome Goodness knows where the inspiration came from for the name or the idea of a miniature motor bike but motorcycle genius Soichiro Honda`s original design, the CZ100 `Mini Bike`, still has an enthusiastic following, and an original example will now set you back a few thousand sovs. AKA the `Monkey Bike`, by which it was and will be forever known, the first of the line had a 49cc pushrod engine, rigid forks, single seat and 5`` wheels. Soon upgraded to the CZ50M, a sort of de-luxe version, with ohc engine from the step-thru C50 and tartan twin folding seat. Next up was the Z50A which had tele forks, 8`` wheels with knobblys, high level exhaust and you could have a red, blue or yellow colour scheme. That model then morphed into the Z50AK2 which was almost exactly the same and named, after its tank badges, the `Mini-Trail`. Ironically the Far East motorcycle industry has spent the last four decades cloning Mr Honda`s designs, some official others not, and there are many copies of the Monkey Bike available on the market today. Indeed the term has become somewhat generic now and can apply to any miniature motorcycle. The bike on offer would appear to be of Oriental origin branded Jincheng ``Easy Rider Monkey Bike`` and looks to be a very good replica of the Honda Z50AK2. A 2000 `Millennium Edition` it has only 98 miles on the odometer and looks to be in very good condition. It has a V5, together with expired MOT certificates to 2007 and is fitted with many extras. Ideal for mounting on the back of your motor home. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1915 Hobart Two-Stroke Bike Year: 1915 Bike Make: Hobart Bike Model: Two-Stroke Bike Reg No.: DS 9542 Bike Frame No.: 77466 Bike Engine No.: 6856 Bike Colour: Black The Coventry based Hobart company built motorcycles between 1901 and 1923 in a variety of configurations, from lightweights through to large V twin engined models, and additionally supplied components to other manufacturers. Of the range the 2 1/12 HP lightweight was initially introduced as a single speeder but in December 1914 a 2 speed gear was announced, initially a ROC unit, but in January 1915 a press release announced the introduction of a Chater Lea 2 speed gearbox of the type fitted to the example offered for sale. Acquired by the vendor in 1995 as a barn find a restoration was embarked upon sadly to be protracted by pressures of work and house moves, as a reult the project remaining ongoing. Offered for sale in a dismantled state a substantial proportion of the `tedious stuff` has however been substantially completed. Work done includes professional frame realignment, fork rebushing, magneto overhaul and renickeling etc. In addition to various printed material relating to Hobart motorcycles generally the history file includes extensive reference photographs of the machine in its as found condition, receipts for works completed, and various notes relating to technical matters to aid completion. A spare engine is also included! Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1970 Wassel Antelope Trials Bike Year: 1970 Bike Make: Wassel Bike Model: Antelope Trials Bike Reg No.: Q742GJA Bike Frame No.: W891ST Bike Engine No.: 7176878 Bike Colour: Grey W.E. Wassell Ltd was founded in 1946 by Ted Wassell to distribute spares for motorcycles. By 1967 Wassell had moved to a purpose built factory and warehouse in Burntwood and was manufacturing a large range of metal accessories and spares. In 1972 the success of the company`s alloy fuel tanks and mudguards, popular with the competition fraternity, encouraged the addition of complete frame kits to be offered suitable for the BSA Bantam engine to be fitted by owners. The natural progression was for a complete machine to be developed for sale and motorcross, enduro and trials versions were soon available, powered by Fichtel and Sachs engines, at a list price of ú315. Many of these machines were to be exported as Mudlark and Antelope models, and some 3000 in total were produced, mainly with Ceriani forks, Dunlop wheels, Girling shocks and Wassell alloy components. The company was employing more than 100 people by the time of Ted Wassell`s untimely death in 1975, after which the firm was acquired by MCE group who subsequently sold it on to Lintek Gleave of Lincoln. Wassell was then bought by the Frank Thomas organisation and re-established in Lincoln from where it still operates today, it is now the largest supplier of classic British bike parts in the world and recently has re-introduced the Hepolite brand of pistons. The 1970 Wassell Antelope seen here is a very good example of the marque in surprisingly original unrestored condition, having completed only 434 recorded miles. Reported to be `all good` by the vendor who purchased it in 1988 and registered it at that time. Fitted with the 122cc Sachs engine it comes complete with V5, expired MOT certificates and other documents. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1926 Raleigh Model 14 Bike Year: 1926 Bike Make: Raleigh Bike Model: Model 14 Bike Reg No.: CF 6876 Bike Frame No.: 7751 Bike Engine No.: M1591 Bike Colour: Black The well known Nottingham bicycle manufacturer entered the motorcycle market in 1901 with motorcycle production continuing in a sporadic fashion throughout the pioneer period. During 1920 the company commenced the manufacture of a new in line flat twin, which they followed in 1922 with a range of single cylinder side valve models featuring either two or three speed gearboxes and belt or chain final drive. The new machines quickly established an enviable reputation for their reliability enhanced in 1924 by Hugh Gibson`s successful circuit of the British coast on a combination and Majorie Cottle`s reverse circuit of the same route on a solo. Production continued until 1933 when the company ceased motorcycle production to concentrate on their pedal powered products. This example of the 246cc side valve Model 14 dates from 1926. Equipped with a three speed gearbox and chain final drive it was purchased as a basket case by the vendor in 1987 who undertook its rebuild. The engine, gearbox and magneto were rebuilt as were the hubs, wheels and other cycle parts. The seat was recovered in leather and a new Dunlop Cord tyre was fitted to the rear wheel. New reverse levers were purchased. The frame, forks mudguards and other cycle parts were sandblasted and painted black and a period carbide lighting set was fitted. After completion in 1988 the bike, although a runner, has stood as a centre piece in the reception of an engineering works. It is offered with a buff logbook dating from 1945 and an old Swansea V5.

1960s Ducati Monza Bike Year: 1960s Bike Make: Ducati Bike Model: Monza Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: T.B.A. Bike Engine No.: DM250 96114 Bike Colour: Red / Silver Another illustrious motorcycle manufacturer whose business began by producing clip-on bike engines. And they don`t come much more illustrious than the mighty Ducati concern, commencing in 1950 offering such a product to a transport hungry market. Taglioni`s desirable exotic designs, big thundering race bred twins and exquisite singles grew from these humble beginnings and continue to add to the firm`s prestige to the present day. Early models from the mid sixties suffered a little from cheap finishing issues and maybe undeservedly questionable electrics, perhaps if used in the UK climate at any rate, but overall fine handling and power delivery through 5 speed transmissions were attractions difficult to resist by the discerning enthusiast. Some versions in Giugiaro`s unpopular, squarer, `Euro` trim may now represent the best value for money with no compromise of performance, if you are not fussy about style. Models with the Desmo valve gear beloved of Ducati still command a premium, although little or no improvement in performance was apparent on the smaller models if compared to some of the spring valve variants. For some the 350 Desmo is the best of the lightweight bunch, modern 12v electronics providing improvements to ignition and lighting on most models, particularly this pint size performer, the basis of many race bikes. This Ducati is believed to be a Mk111 Monza 250cc single from the mid-sixties, although no documents are to hand at present. Largely complete, but missing seat and fuel tank, the bike is offered at a low estimate to allow the new owner to complete a very worthwhile restoration, which could result in a most desirable road bike or race replica suitable for track day or parade duties.

1960 Norton ES2 Bike Year: 1960 Bike Make: Norton Bike Model: ES2 Bike Reg No.: 997 GCV Bike Frame No.: R14 88623 Bike Engine No.: 88623 R4 Bike Colour: Green During its long production life at Bracebridge St. the 490 cc ES2 consolidated its reputation as a well mannered, if slightly underpowered, OHV single well deserving of it`s Norton tank badges. From the original plunger framed ES2`s introduction in 1947, right up to 1963, by which time it had received many major changes including the incorporation of the revered Featherbed frame and revised Roadholder front forks, the model lived up to its appropriately colloquial nickname, the ``Easy Two``. Easy to ride, maintain and live with, the bike`s softly tuned engine, having been developed from the earlier model 18, continued almost unchanged throughout its production. The name being so highly respected that it was to live on after the 1962 amalgamation of Norton Motors into the AMC group, when the ES2 became a rebadged Matchless G80. According to the accompanying original buff log book 997 GCV was first registered on March 9th 1960 in Cambourne, Cornwall by Parade Motorcycles and has spent all it`s life in the west country. A Norton Owners club data sheet confirms fitting of flat bars and chrome mudguards when new, the original colour being green although a previous owner, famed Cornish speedway rider Kessell, has repainted the panels in Army drab. The vendor purchased the bike from Mr Kessell in 1997 intending to restore it but has not touched it since. Although somewhat dishevelled, beneath the khaki lurks a very desirable example of one of the best loved British bikes of the post war era. A DVLA v5 is with the vehicle.

1958 BSA B33 Bike Year: 1958 Bike Make: BSA Bike Model: B33 Bike Reg No.: YPX 896 Bike Frame No.: FB31-1168 Bike Engine No.: GB33-322 Bike Colour: Red / Black The BSA 350cc B31 and B33 500 cc workhorses originated in immediate post-war years with contemporary modern styling, albeit owing much of their engineering to pre-war progenitors. Always appreciated for their solid and reliable performance these popular models were in the BSA catalogue right up to the end of the fifties, when twins became the fashion and the `thumper` was seen by the motorcyclist as an anachronism, apart that is from the sidecar-lugging fraternity who hadn`t yet got over the demise of rigid frames and girder forks. The motorcyclist himself by this time was almost an anachronism, but most appreciated the simplicity, reliability, economy, power and handling of the last of the big everyday Beesa singles which by 1959 had the benefit of well developed swing arm frame, telescopic forks large fuel tank and copious dual seat. Also by then a fully enclosed rear chaincase, headlamp nacelle, alternator electrics and more effective brakes were standard. As ever the Great British Motorcycle Industry had got it right. Then they stopped making them! This particular B33, dating from the penultimate year of full production, appears to be very original and correct in it`s red/black livery, and has a useful rear carrier fitted. The bike was first registered in West Sussex and spent most of it`s life in the area before being purchased from a farm in Hastings by the vendor in 1994. However restoration never got under way and YPX 968 has been in dry storage since. Swansea V5 plus original buff log book and a 1990 MOT certificate are with the machine, which is a very suitable case for complete rebuild. All parts being freely available from numerous BSA suppliers the machine will repay the effort required as these bikes are much sought after in today`s market.

1955 AJS 16MC Bike Year: 1955 Bike Make: AJS Bike Model: 16MC Bike Reg No.: VKT 139 Bike Frame No.: C/6384 Bike Engine No.: 56/IGH/1797 Bike Colour: Alloy / Black From the earliest days competitive events featured heavily in the story of AJS Motorcycles. The Stevens family themselves competed on their own machinery and by 1915 AJS completely dominated the new Junior TT class, thus establishing a sporting image and driving sales of road machines to levels that necessitated a new factory to be built in Wolverhampton. Continuing success throughout the next decade didn`t help AJS avoid the depression, financial problems resulting from which saw the company being acquired by the Collier brother`s Matchless concern and production moved to Plumstead in the early 30`s. The two marques continued to be produced as separate model ranges, although the machines were similar apart from slight design details, and were marketed as such until the demise of Matchless and the rest of the AMC group in the mid-sixties. The AJS brand has stuttered along attached to a number of more esoteric projects and after a number of false stops may well yet appear once more on a desirable motorcycle. VKT 139 is a Trials AJS Model 16 MC of 1956 model year bought by the vendor in 1996.There is anecdotal evidence from the previous owner that the bike was fitted with a prototype springer rear end, although the works were offering a similar standard conversion to the rigid frame from 1951, so this may not be the case, and it is believed that the engine was at some time overhauled by specialist Ken de Groom. There is a photograph of a machine with this registration number being ridden by Tom Arter in the 1955 Mitcham Vase event. An alloy fuel tank was fitted to preserve the original and is with the machine, which looks correct in other details and is eminently suitable for pre-65 events after a re-commission. A V5 document, buff log book and some expired MOT certificates are available. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1958 Ariel FH Huntmaster Bike Year: 1958 Bike Make: Ariel Bike Model: FH Huntmaster Bike Reg No.: 786 GKX Bike Frame No.: CAPR11074 Bike Engine No.: CNF4967 Bike Colour: Maroon Ariel ` One of the first manufacturers of British motorcycles, founded by the Dunlop Tyre Co. in 1897, and a well respected name synonymous with sturdy well built machines although not many of which were revolutionary, exciting, chrome laden or exuberantly finished products. Ariel, excepting the `Squariel` 4 cylinder and later two stroke sensations Arrow and Leader, for more than a half century produced the widest range of conventional motorcycles on offer from any manufacturer, before being assimilated into the BSA group. Never a company to make exaggerated performance claims they had significant success in offroad events, rather than racing, which emphasised the rugged nature of the standard road machinery. One of the exceptions to the staid image of the marque would be the Huntmaster FH variant produced between 1954-60. An attractive, easily handled, man sized, 97 mph. 650 twin this model was built around the basic components of the BSA A10 Gold Flash engine, none the worse for that, but however still somehow remaining very much an Ariel. This particular bike is a 1958 model purchased by the vendor in 2006 for his own use and still in substantially the same condition as bought, although subsequently given a full service. According to information on hand from the VMCC and Ariel o/c 786 GKX was originally supplied in what was termed `Ex - Sport Glamour` specification, which meant bright red tanks and guards for export markets, although this bike appears to be one of only 16 or so which found their way onto the home market. A V5 registration document, tax disc and MOT certificate dating from 1990 are available for inspection along with the information above. Seemingly in very original and sound condition and still in possession of all the difficult to source panels, although these have at some time being repainted in a more sober Ariel maroon colour scheme, this bike could, with careful recommissioning and light restoration easily be made suitable for use by a new owner.

1967 BSA Spitfire MKIII Bike Year: 1967 Bike Make: BSA Bike Model: Spitfire MKIII Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: T.B.A. Bike Engine No.: T.B.A. Bike Colour: Black To complement the new range of A65 unit construction touring twins, in 1964 BSA group introduced a more sporting version in the form of the A65 Rocket. Thunderbolt, Cyclone, Lightning, Wasp, Firebird and Spitfire-Hornet became model variations on this theme the image of which appealed to the more sporting riders who demanded the tuned engine, competition trim, chrome and colour schemes to match the aggressive sounding names. The A65SH Spitfire-Hornet was the real off roader, there was never a Spitfire Mk 1 as such, but confusingly the A65S 1966 Spitfire Mk2 was the first version in road trim which evolved over the next couple of years, ultimately into the Mk4 with twin leading shoe front brakes and Amal Concentric carbs. As usual many of these models were fitted with the requisite raised handlebars, small capacity fuel tanks etc. and supplied to the North American market. Known as the Power Egg for obvious reasons, the unit engines were always regarded as fragile around the crankshaft area and for long duration, high speed use conversions are now available from various specialists and advisable if a rebuild is envisaged. The investment in these modifications will provide a useable performance motorcycle well up to standards required on today`s roads. The A65SA Spitfire in question here is a Mk 3 model purchased by the vendor in 1966 intending for it to be restored, but never completed. No documents or details of early history are to hand at time of writing but may be available before sale, although a VMCC dating letter is with the bike. According to this the engine no. listed as 15996 would have been manufactured around 1967, but BSA records are indistinct for the period as many machines were unsold and held in stock for 2 years or more, some being exported as late as 1970. The colour scheme would have been black frame parts with flamboyant red panels. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1972 Norton Commando Bike Year: 1972 Bike Make: Norton Bike Model: Commando Bike Reg No.: BPA346K Bike Frame No.: 209442 Bike Engine No.: 209442 Bike Colour: Black By 1965 the range of Norton motorcycles inherited by the new owners of the marque, Norton Villiers Ltd. was incapable of any further development. Prospective buyers demanded reliable machinery capable of sustained high speed, machinery which was readily available from Yamonda and Suzuwaki, those unsporting Japanese chaps who totally disregarded the Great British Motorcycle Industry`s inalienable right to supply the world with motorbikes, and at extremely competitive prices too. The ageing Norton twins, revered as they were by Norton enthusiasts, were no match for these products and something new was required. Fast. Typically resources were few or outdated and finance limited, but for once the GBMI got it right, almost, and the Commando range was created. Destined to become an amazingly successful motorcycle, combining both modern and traditional styling the Commando was basically a single machine that could be disguised with low cost cosmetics and sold as firstly the unconventionally styled Fastback, secondly the more traditional style Roadster, a factory custom Hi-Rider, also a properly competitive production race bike and its progeny the John Player Special for the poseurs, and the Interstate version, a long distance tourer also commercially developed as the Interpol. An early example of badge (or trim) engineering, all these variants used the same superficially modern powerplant, essentially a similar design to the preceding engines but slanted forward in a more sporting fashion and having some of their inherent faults, principally vibration, substantially reduced by the revolutionary Isolastic mounting system. Various minor improvements evolved over the next ten years of production, plus some major ones, disc brakes, electric starters, indicators, left foot gear change and an 850cc model towards the end. The model here is a 1972 750 Interstate and can be described as an `older restoration` which will repay careful recommissioning before returning to the road, although after long storage a good clean up alone should reveal a very attractive bike in the correct black and gold livery. Discovered by the airline pilot owner in Maine USA in poor condition in 1991, it was repatriated to the UK in his Tri-Star`s hold and fully restored over the next two years, using much stainless and being fitted with many new parts. A current Swansea V5 is with the machine, confirming the correct matching engine and frame numbers. The Commando, seen by some as the definitive Brit Twin, is a joy to ride when well set up and BPA346K has the potential to reward the new owner with hours of enjoyable motorcycling.

1960 Velocette Venom Bike Year: 1960 Bike Make: Velocette Bike Model: Venom Bike Reg No.: TSY 204 Bike Frame No.: RS14476 Bike Engine No.: VM4129 Bike Colour: Black Velocette`s Venom, is thought by many to be a far superior machine to any other on the road, and they may be right. Others will say the damned things are far too difficult to start, awkward to maintain, old fashioned and list a host of other somewhat mythical faults and idiosyncrasies some of which are true, any of which will be overlooked or forgiven by a true Velo enthusiast. Idiosyncratic? Certainly! But the black (sometimes red, blue or green) and gold striped beauty flying past barking its unmistakeable exhaust note through that lovely massive chrome fishtail silencer are a sight and sound likely to turn many a hard nosed motorcycle cynic, as regards the Grt. Brit. M/c. Ind. in particular, into a nostalgic romantic. You will have guessed that your scribbler is a Velo fan. The 500cc Venom came into being together with it`s 350 Viper sibling in 1956. At that time the MAC 350cc (ride-to-workhorse), Viper 350 (sweet sporty single underpowered for its chassis), MSS 500c (softly tuned comfy tourer), Venom 500cc and variants Clubman and Thruxton ( traditional big high performance singles) gave Velocette a range of machines capable of mixing it with anything the big boys could offer. It`s early history is not known but TSY204 is a Venom from the 1960 model year, purchased by the vendor in Maine USA around 1993 in very rough and incomplete condition. It was repatriated to UK in large lumps and subsequently restored at great expense, using much stainless and parts mainly sourced at Seymour`s, by 1996. The machine is fitted with the desirable prefix 12 / R gearbox option and comes complete with V5 and VELO O/C dating letter. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

The model nomenclature was, and is still, almost incomprehensible to all but the most dyed in the wool AMC anorak. Consisting of various numbers, not necessarily in sequence, and suffixed by a confusing combination of G, S,C, and R digits the model in question can usually be correctly identified by the engine number and will be within the AJS or Matchless marque designation. The two variants were identical except for badging but inexplicably AJS branded bikes could be some ú25 cheaper than the Matchless equivalent when new. Many major and minor parts are still freely available and can be interchanged between many models making restoration simple, the big 650 twins in particular lend themselves to such projects and can be used satisfactorily under modern road conditions. The later versions enjoy the benefit of complete Norton Roadholder front ends, the excellent AMC designed gearbox and all the other long overdue improvements that the G. B. M. I. discovered when it was just about too late. This 1964 31 CSR example was bought by the vendor in 1998 via Yeomans of Drayton, who kindly and honestly returned the extra ú10 note he had mistakenly included in his payment. It was to be restored but never made it to the top of the pile of projects, so has lain untouched in dry storage since. First registered BTW 677B by dealers Claude Rye, evidenced by the accompanying buff log book, the bike spent it`s early years in Middlesex and Hereford. This machine looks substantially complete and original and is a prime candidate for restoration. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1964 Norton Electra Bike Year: 1964 Bike Make: Norton Bike Model: Electra Bike Reg No.: CPL918B Bike Frame No.: 800 Bike Engine No.: EL/800 Bike Colour: Black / Silver Norton`s range of lightweight twins had improved considerably from the original Jubilee 250 via the rather better Navigator 350 to the even better Electra 400. By 1964 this machine had a much improved gearbox, Roadholder forks and running gear from the heavier Norton machines and had shed the weight of a few square feet of tin sheet fairings and mudguards previously fashionable. Based around well proven gearbox internals and framework from AJS and Matchless models the ES 400 also boasted an electric boot and also the then futuristic novelties such as direction indicators, all this built around what was a basically well designed engine unit with great possibilities, although the public had not yet had the opportunity of doing the development testing usually required of them by the GBMI. The engine`s major failings (only of course if you consider excessive vibration, noisy mechanicals, oil leaks and rapid wear to be failings) could have been developed out and may have made the 400 a machine which could have helped repel the Japanese invasion. As it was the likes of Honda were well in advance with what were in reality much better motorcycles overall, although perhaps a little lacking in the braking department. This desirable example of an unusual Norton is from 1964 and looks to be in good condition under a few year`s storage grime. Nicely original in black and silver with an indicated 44400 miles showing on the Smiths speedo, CPL918B identified as the ES400 Electra. It is an opportunity to restore a very unusual and significant product of the British motorcycle industry, very suitable for those who prefer a light and easily handled machine.

The B50 Street Scrambler was little different to it`s cousin the B50 T Victor, (a daylight off roader, more field than street) but both maybe gave the Japanese a few pointers where big macho knobbly bikes were concerned and set a style still popular today. Bearing the revered Goldie title a little heavily, very much to the chagrin and alienation of many BSA aficionados, BSA was clutching at any straw to make the products attractive, the B50 came with many of the usual shortcomings of a stretched and underdeveloped engine. Like most of it`s forebears this engine could trace ancestry right back to the Triumph Terrier via Cub, C15, B15, B40 etcetera, and multitudinous problems could await the proud owner, particularly if said proud owner was a bit of a novice or at best an unsympathetic rider. Unsympathetic that is to a machine subject to oil leaks, short big end life and a tendency to destroy itself, if you could stand the escalating vibration long enough and still be in the saddle when it did. But we still love these old things anyway, and today all of the above can be considered sorted if modern materials and modifications, developed by a number of specialists from 40 odd years of experience and hindsight, are utilised. This 1971 B50SS from the first year of manufacture looks to be an original and genuine example having all the right bits, not mint but in very usable order. In the doldrums for a long period this model is now becoming increasingly sought after and should provide the adventurous rider with endless entertainment for a relatively modest outlay.

1959 Royal Enfield Constellation Bike Year: 1959 Bike Make: Royal Enfield Bike Model: Constellation Bike Reg No.: XMR467A Bike Frame No.: 6149 Bike Engine No.: SMCA7636 Bike Colour: Alloy / Red / Black The west midlands factory of `the Enfield` produced many fine motorcycles, and some clunkers, which are still in production today, albeit in greatly modified form, on the Indian sub-continent.(Where the `Royal ` bit came from is unclear, maybe the Queen Mother rode a Bullet ?) One machine that definitely falls into the former category was the 700cc Constellation which in 1963 became the impressive 750 Interceptor to take on the offerings from BSA Triumph. Never really successful in terms of sales the big Royal Enfield twins were charismacho, to coin a phrase, but the struggle for oblivion was almost lost. Mr Honda`s 750 Four was coming out of the sun and the big heavy oil leaking dated flawed vibrating clunky upright parallel Brit twin was about to be shot down for good. Happily this was long after XMR 467A was born in 1959 at Royal Enfield`s Redditch facility, the saw tooth roof line of which can be seen still. A great improvement on it`s `500 Twin` predecessor which wasn`t very fast and the slightly more sporting Meteor and Super Meteor models, the `Connie` became the R.E. to have, should you want one. It still suffered a little from the quirky but standard issue oil tank, integral to the crankcase and prone to boil the 4 pints of oil within, which could soon become without via some of the joints if not scrupulously maintained. Braking and handling were considered adequate if not over effective considering the size and weight of these robust if idiosyncratic and individualistic machines. This bike was purchased in 1989 by the vendor from the estate of an old soldier. No work has been done on the machine since although it has been seen to run in the intervening period. A V5 is present, the condition looks to be very original and correct and with perhaps little more than cosmetic attention it could become a ride and restore proposition.

1932 Sunbeam Lion Bike Year: 1932 Bike Make: Sunbeam Bike Model: Lion Bike Reg No.: YD 5374 Bike Frame No.: 12281 Bike Engine No.: J6047 Bike Colour: Black Sunbeam always had a well deserved reputation for engineering quality and finish and this was preserved by the policy of do it yourself manufacturing instigated from the outset in 1912 by founder John Marston. Production was kept in house, only a few items such as castings were bought in. What is now known as `outsourcing` was the norm in the early days of the industry, but frowned upon by the likes of Sunbeam, who much preferred to keep things under close control. y 1920 Sunbeam were winning I.O.M. TT`s, the prestige so gained added to the respect the black and gold liveried machines enjoyed well into the thirties. After this golden age the Company passed into the hands of the ICI group and by 1937 the corporate policies of this industrial conglomerate had reduced the company to a poor state and it was eventually broken up and sold to what would become the AMC group. Sunbeam couldn`t make a bad product or, more significantly to the bean counters, a big profit. One of the stalwarts in the range of Sunbeams came into the list in 1930 as the model 6. Also designated the `Lion`, and there would be Lions of varying capacity and specification in the range up until the end in 1943. YD 5374 dates from the apogee of Sunbeam`s successful development, a 1932 `Lion` or model 6 with the 489cc single sv engine, which was also available that year with a 599cc power unit. The early history of this bike is unknown but it was owned by the Palumbo family from 1984 until being purchased by the vendor at a Brooks Auction in 1995. It joined his extensive collection of machines-in-waiting for restoration but was never started or run, so has been dry stored since. The machine is fitted with the useful fully enclosed chainguard and appears to be most original, apart from a few minor details. Having not been used for many years careful recommissioning is advised, but a most rewarding restoration awaits a new owner. A Swansea V5 is present. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1952 Vincent Comet Series C Bike Year: 1952 Bike Make: Vincent Bike Model: Comet Series C Bike Reg No.: 374 XUU Bike Frame No.: RC/1/10422/C Bike Engine No.: F5AB/2A/8522 Bike Colour: Red It was said , by some who should know, that Philip Vincent`s 500cc single cylinder Comet, compared to the eponymous 1000cc v twin, was ``half the size-half the appeal-half the price``, that it was the Marmite motorcycle (you either love it or loathe it) and that one would be better off with a Matchless G80. These points can be argued about `til the bovines return. Apart that is from the fact that in the current market a Comet will set you back less than a third of the price of the average Vincent twin, which makes them a relative bargain. Cash the ISA`s in and get one now! Re-introduced in 1948 with the new Girdraulic forks, Burman transmission supplying power to similar frame and running gear from the twins, the post war series C Comet is still a worthy motorcycle in it`s own right and certainly enjoys some of the glamour and mystique of it`s big siblings. This Comet, one of the later models made in 1952, is thought to be one of 17 finished in red and supplied to the North American market. Purchased by the vendor in 2000 in Maine USA and shipped back to UK in parts, the machine has been substantially restored, although a little work remains to perfect the refurbishment. The machine has matching numbers, an expired MOT, Vincent o/c authentication form and V5 registration document 374 XUU, there is also an accompanying box of further information.

1970 Triumph T120R Bonneville Bike Year: 1970 Bike Make: Triumph Bike Model: T120R Bonneville Bike Reg No.: TTT645H Bike Frame No.: CD43891T120R Bike Engine No.: CD43891 Bike Colour: Maroon The last Bonneville, completed in March 1988, brought to an end a basic design and style of Triumph twin dating back to 1938. The first model to bear the appellation, forever shortened to `Bonnie`, evolved in 1959 and is probably the most valued today but not necessarily the best, being powerful but noisy, vibratory and handling wildly at speed. Bonnies in numerous versions were available during 30 years of production and, although all have their enthusiasts, some were decidedly better than others. Conceived as a rorty high performance roadburner, by the end the Bonnie, although still a very special machine had become a different animal, with styling and engineering improvements not necessarily for the better. The unit-engined version of 66-70 are regarded by many as the one to have, introduced just prior to the unpopular later 70`s oil-in-frame models which also came with the less attractive slab sided tanks and a high riding position. TTT695H is a US export model T120R 650 Bonneville of 1970 vintage. Little different from the home market motorcycles in specification but fitted with a smaller fuel tank, high bars and associated cabling etc. only a few other styling details are noticeable. his machine was bought from a West Coast Triumph dealership in 1999 and re-imported by the vendor shortly after and UK registered. Subsequently used in the UK for a year or so it was laid up and has seen no further use. A V5 is with the bike together with California title documents, DVLA V5 and expired MOT certificates. Careful re-commissioning is required before returning to the road. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1913 AJS Model D Bike Year: 1913 Bike Make: AJS Bike Model: Model D Bike Reg No.: SL 9975 Bike Frame No.: 286 Bike Engine No.: 3249 Bike Colour: Black / Silver The AJS model range for 1913 included the luxurious model D which was produced from the beginning with some unusual features, which were way ahead of their time in design. A 700cc twin 6 hp. machine equipped with a 3 speed gearbox manufactured in house by AJS along with many other parts, also unusual in the days when machines were normally made up from proprietary components and assembled under a brand name, this model was originally intended as a side car puller. Normally belt was the drive mechanism still popularly used by most manufacturers but the D had the more robust and expensive all chain drive system although stirrup type front brake and tank mounted hand change lever belied its pioneer heritage, as did carbon gas lamps with generator and total loss lubrication by hand operated pump on the fuel and oil tank. More modern in design for the day was the internally expanding drum brake fitted at the rear. SL 9975 is a 1913 Model D in black and silver paintwork and was last used in 2011, it has V5C documents and expired mot certificates plus numerous old tax discs. According to the V.M.C.C. it is one of only six surviving examples worldwide and was a centre spread feature in their 2010 Journal. It has completed 15 Pioneer runs, 6 London to Brighton events, the Banbury on several occasions and has won numerous awards at many events including the V.M.C.C. Founders Day rally Best Veteran cup twice in recent years. The owner reports the motorcycle to be in excellent condition all round and that it will need only slight re-commissioning to be returned to the road for this year. This superb, rare gentleman`s luxury veteran has all the original features mentioned above still fitted, and is a wonderful opportunity for a new collector or riding owner who wishes to actively participate in Vintage events in future. PLEASE NOTE: The vendor has informed us that the motorcycle has completed 21 London to Brighton Pioneer Runs, 6 of which were with himself. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

Velocette Viper Bike Make: Velocette Bike Model: Viper Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: RS17499 Bike Engine No.: VR3016 Bike Colour: Black Velocette Viper 1956-69 348cc sweet and solid single 29 bhp @7000 rpm. Not much more can be said about these well engineered motorcycles which have a strong and avid following of discerning enthusiasts who appreciate good old fashioned style and quality; performance and economy too with 88mph and 58 mpg attainable, on a good day. The Viper, in it`s usual lustrous black, gold and chrome finish like the majority of Velos, is the sports version of the 350 options produced at Hall Green. A cooking 350 MAC roadster with quite a bit more spicy performance, an example of `same recipe, a bit more bite in a more attractive package` if you like, and easy to convert to Venom 500cc specification if more poke is required. Hard to find now, some came with the then fashionable glassfibre engine enclosures, making cleaning easier but cooling less so, and consequently discarded. The Velo is a machine for the individualist, but not so mechanically quirky and difficult as folk lore might suggest, if well set up and scrupulously maintained they are a delight to own but certain idiosyncrasies must be allowed for. Velocette owners are extremely well catered for by the Velo Owners Club Spares Scheme, numerous marque specialists and suppliers so spare parts are rarely a problem, if costly. The Viper in today`s sale is listed as an earlier restoration with many new parts fitted, details are sketchy at time of writing but the description of `all good` and `runs well` would seem to be correct. The bike is not registered and the frame is RS 17499 with engine no. VR 3016. Velocettes of all description are much sought after in today`s market, but still represent good value and are a sound investment for the collector or alternatively an interesting prospect for the active rider.

1966 Cotton Trials Bike Year: 1966 Bike Make: Cotton Bike Model: Trials Bike Reg No.: KFH383D Bike Frame No.: 6217 Bike Engine No.: 974 Bike Colour: Red / Black The Gloucester based Cotton concern returned to motorcycle manufacture in 1954 with a lightweight two stroke powered model using a Villiers 8E engine. This was joined in 1956 by a trials version, powered by a Villiers 9E engine with a four speed gearbox, marking the company`s first foray into the trials world. The 197cc trials model was joined in 1961 by a 250cc variant, powered by the well proven Villiers 32A unit housed in a similar set of cycle parts to the smaller machine. During 1963 a revised version of the 250 Trials was added to the range, typed the 250 Trails Special the new model featured a 32A bottom end fitted with a Parkinson conversion and some detail changes to the frame. The range continued with no changes for the 1964 season except for the loss of the 197cc trials model however 1965 saw the introduction of a new duplex frame for the trials models with the range remaining unchanged for 1966. The 1967 season was marked by the option of Metal Profile forks for the trials machines and the introduction of the Villiers 37A power unit in place of the 32A unit previously employed with the option of a 262cc conversion. A copy of the continuation book that accompanies the machine offered shows the motorcycle as first being registered to future British 250cc Scrambles Champion Malcolm Davis who ran a dealership just up the road from the Cotton factory in Gloucester. The machine was restored between 1999 and 2000 at which time the engine and gearbox were rebuilt, the frame powder coated and the cycle parts renovated or replaced. It was tested following the restoration but has seen no use since, being carefully stored. It is offered with a Swansea V5C, a Cotton Owners Club dating certificate, and the buff continuation log book. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1978 Bultaco Alpina Bike Year: 1978 Bike Make: Bultaco Bike Model: Alpina Bike Reg No.: EU-Reg Bike Frame No.: JB21300014 Bike Engine No.: JM21300014 Bike Colour: Red / Black The first Alpina was introduced during 1971 in response to requests from the States for a "woods" bike that retained the agility of the Sherpa trials model but offered a higher degree of comfort, greater range and better on road performance. The first Alpina model retained the well proven Sherpa engine fitted with Matador gear ratios to improve the machines overall performance. The frame was clearly derived from the Sherpa`s but benefitted from revised geometry and changes to the suspension settings better suited to its intended role. A larger capacity fuel tank resulted in a greater range and a more comfortable seat was fitted. The first examples were fitted with a 250cc capacity engine, but were quickly followed by 125, 175 and 350cc versions. The basic design of the Alpina remained largely unchanged throughout its production life filling a niche between the all out enduro machine and the pure trials bike, although the fittings changed with the fibreglass fuel tank and seat unit eventually being replaced by an alloy example and dual seat, alloy mudguards gave way to plastic examples and revisions introduced to the Sherpa power plant and frame were adopted by the Alpina. The example offered is one of the last series of machines built between 1977 and 1979 and has been restored to an excellent standard throughout. The vendor converted the electrical system to 12 volt operation during the restoration and informs us that the machine is currently registered in Spain.
