Registration No: DDV 734T Frame No: PT4SGS160932M MOT: ExemptVery original and rare Benelli 250/4Last on the road in 1985Recently discovered in a shedAll complete and the engine turns overThe Benelli 254, originally known as the Benelli 250 Quattro, is a 250cc inline-four motorcycle produced by the Italian manufacturer Benelli from 1977 to 1984. It was, at the time, the smallest production four. The 250 models were built to take advantage of the tax concessions on machines under 250cc in Italy and other markets. Designed by engineer Lino Tonti, although a four, it was a different design to the larger 500/4. Styling was by Paolo Martin. The 250 Quattro was first shown at the 1975 Milan Motorcycle Show, and production started in 1977. Plastic and aluminium were used extensively to keep the weight down to 117kg. Martin's sleek styling included uncluttered handlebars, with the clocks and brake master-cylinder mounted in the tank.This 1979 Benelli 250/4 Quattro has recently been discovered in the late vendor's shed since his passing. A very original machine displaying a mere 11,427km from new (7,100 miles), it was last registered in 1985, at the time it was purchased by the vendor. In good all-around condition for its age, it is now ready for a new owner as a winter project. The Benelli comes complete with an old style blue and white logbook and a workshop manual. It will require full recommissioning before use.. It will require full recommissioning before use. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: PHH 929H Frame No: CC134668 B25S MOT: ExemptRESERVE REDUCEDAuthentically presented BSA B25S StarfireThought to have had just one owner from newSupplied with a current V5CThe BSA factory was established in Birmingham in 1861 and went on to become one of the world's largest producers of motorcycles. The B25 range was the last of a long line of ‘learner legal’ 250s offered by BSA, with a simple tried and tested single-cylinder OHV engine developing around 20bhp. The Starfire was the sporty model in the range, sharing many cycle parts with the B44 Victor Roadster including a fibreglass tank and a seat with a rear hump. Front forks were two-way damped and rubber gaiters fitted instead of the metal covers of the C15 and the rear shock absorbers were now exposed. Chrome mudguards and a chrome headlight shell added to the style and in 1969, in common with other machines in the BSA/Triumph range, a new 7" twin leading shoe front brake was fitted.Part of a deceased estate, according to the V5C this B25 has only had one owner from new, and from what his son can remember was the first bike in his father's eventual small collection of BSAs and Triumphs. Whilst a top-selling bike in its day, not many B25s have survived in this authentic and mostly original condition. Stood for a few years, it will need recommissioning before use and is offered with a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Ian Cunningham ian.cunningham@handh.co.uk 07415871189

Registration No: BS 9619 Frame No: 192254 MOT: ExemptDesirable 'free engine' modelPioneer Certificate from 2006A very usable Pioneer machine,From a small collection and restored c.20 years agoTriumph made their first motorcycle in 1902 with the 1912 3½HP model being a continuation of the 1910 TT class winner and known as one of the most durable and reliable motorcycles of the time. This example is fitted with the free-engine clutch fitted in the rear wheel hub that's actuated with a heel/toe foot pedal (a rare option). The transmission was via a simple V-belt, the motorcycle's frame set low and the springer front fork of Triumph's own design. For flat tyres, the rear stand does not interfere with the removal of the wheel, this was a wonderfully well-thought-out motorcycle in 1912.This 1912 model is the desirable 'free engine' model, a single-speed machine with hub clutch and final drive by belt - with light pedal assistance if required. Purchased by the current owner in 2016, to form part of his collection of machines, it was restored to a good standard some 20 years ago. During his ownership, the vendor used it for a few rallies and steam fairs. Not used for a short time, it may require some light recommissioning before use. It is offered with a current V5C and a Pioneer Certificate from 2006. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: GT750J 026271 MOT: ExemptEarly 1st generation model with a 4 leading shoe drum front brakeMany parts including a spare reconditioned crankshaftGreat winter project supplied with a NOVA numberThe Suzuki Motor Co. was established in 1909 by Michio Suzuki to produce machinery for the cotton industry. An initial diversification into 4-wheeled transport was curtailed by WW2 but after the war, Japan had a need for cheap reliable transport so Suzuki, like a lot of others around the world, began to produce clip-on engines for pushbikes. These proved to be an immediate success and soon they were making full motorcycles and by the early '60s were second only to Honda in numbers of two-wheelers manufactured. In the early 1970s the GT380, GT550 and GT750 three-cylinder range was launched proving to be 'the last hurrah' for the large capacity two-stroke engine. The GT750 was the first mass-produced water-cooled road bike and formed the basis of the famous 'Flexi Flyer' Formula 750 race bike that set Barry Sheene on the path to world championship glory.This GT750J spent the early part of its life in the USA before being imported into the UK in 2015, unregistered it is supplied with a NOVA number. The rolling chassis and paintwork are in decent condition, supplied with a new front mudguard with stays and a pair of new rear shocks. The top end is off the engine but the head, barrel and carbs are included together with a gasket set, a set of used pistons and a new set of 0.5 oversize ones. The original exhaust is supplied together with a full set of cones and mounting rubbers. Most importantly, there is a boxed spare crankshaft that looks to have been overhauled and balanced ready to go in a rebuilt engine. The vendor has accumulated many small items to help with the rebuild, to be included in the sale, but has now decided to move the project on to someone who has the time and space to undertake the job. An interesting winter project. For more information, please contact: Ian Cunningham ian.cunningham@handh.co.uk 07415871189

Registration No: KHH 284C Frame No: 150Li054329 MOT: ExemptComplete and in good original conditionMatching numbers. Keys presentV5C present for use on the roadsThe Scooterlinea was first presented to the public in 1965. Some argue that the Spanish-built Lambrettas were of a superior quality to the Italian versions. Spanish 150 engines are quite sought-after nowadays, as the wider barrel mouth is suitable to directly accommodate many of the upgrade engine kits including Quattrini kits.Here we present a very original example in 'running condition'. Still on 6v points and with its original ‘El Tigre’ seat which is in fabulous original condition. The carburettor was ultrasonically cleaned and the engine is absolutely standard and unmodified and still with its original piston and barrel from new. The engine was subject to a de-coke and replacement gaskets and at the time of consignment, it has to be said that the engine sounded very good. On further inspection, the cables all appear to be original with the correct oilers in place. The vendor told us that he had never opened the head-set in his ownership because everything worked and he has never had to. The scooter is complemented by original Spanish accessories, including the front bumper and flat rear spare wheel holder. A very honest scooter in our opinion.

Registration No: S204 RHJ Frame No: JH2HA02B9TK004854 MOT: NoneOriginal unrestored late model C90 CubThe best-selling vehicle of all timeRare survivor supplied with a current V5CThe Honda Motor Company was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1937, initially producing piston rings for Toyota. They made their first motorcycle in 1949 and within 10 years had become the biggest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. In 1958 the Honda Cub was released and has gone on to become the best-selling motorised vehicle ever produced with over 100 million sales in every corner of the world. The Cub was sold in 50cc, 70cc and 90cc engine sizes and could stake a claim for being the most important and influential motorised vehicle ever designed. To put things into context, the Cub range has sold more individual units than the top three best-selling cars combined! The C90 Cub may be the best-selling vehicle of all time, but not many have survived the rigours of serious go-to-work use and then the ignominy of becoming many future motorcyclist's first field bike.This late model example, being offered at 'no reserve', is from a deceased estate and is presented in original and unrestored condition, still fitted with its genuine silencer. Last MOT'd in 2018, it has not been run for a while, so it will need recommissioning before use, however, the engine turns over freely on the kickstarter and it comes supplied with a current V5C.

Registration No: 540 GDA Frame No: 12022 MOT: ExemptA ride or restore machineIn good running orderUsed and enjoyed for many yearsThe Matchless G5, produced by Associated Motor Cycles (AMC) in the early 1960s, is a lightweight 350cc single-cylinder motorcycle. Known for its reliability and robust design, the G5 was a popular choice for daily commuting and long-distance rides. It features a 348cc overhead-valve engine, which delivers a modest but dependable performance suitable for both urban and rural settings. The G5 is equipped with a four-speed gearbox and a positive-stop foot shift, an innovative feature at the time. The bike also includes a swinging arm rear suspension with hydraulic dampers, which provide a smoother ride compared to earlier rigid frame models.This particular model has been built from parts by its previous owner, who used it as a primary mode of transport. Over the years, he collected parts to keep his bike running and eventually assembled this G5 from those components. In good running order, this machine has been used and enjoyed for many years. Whether you’re looking for a reliable ride or a rewarding restoration project, this Matchless G5 is a versatile option for any classic motorcycle enthusiast. It is offered with a current V5C on file. Please not this machine now does not run, maybe due to an electrical fault. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: FL06 ODU Frame No: VTMRC52B06E000681 MOT: NoneOne owner from newIn very good order and originalLots of paperwork and receiptsA current V5C on fileIn 1998 the Honda Deauville was launched with a 647cc motor and different bodywork to later Honda Deauville. 1999: Honda Deauville gains HISS ignition-based immobiliser. 2006: Honda Deauville relaunched with the larger capacity engine, bigger panniers, revised bodywork and CBS brakes. Across all three generations, the Deauville was known for its shaft-drive, liquid-cooled V-twin engine and extensive painted plastic bodywork with integrated panniers. The first generation Deauville (1998-2001) featured an engine capacity of 650cc. The second generation (2002–2005) featured redesigned bodywork, enlarged panniers and numerous engineering modifications. The third generation (2006–2013) featured an engine capacity enlarged to 680cc and was renamed the NT700V Deauville.This 2006 Honda NT700 has had just one owner from new. In that time it has covered just 35,814 miles. The Honda has been looked after very well and has a host of receipts for work carried out, parts purchased, maintenance work and lots of MOT certificates, handbooks and two sets of keys. It has some signs of use and would make a great touring machine for next summer. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: R75 RGM Frame No: ZDMV100AAWB000520 MOT: NonePierre Terblanche designed 1998 900SSIdeal winter rebuild or resto-mod projectA well-specified bike in its dayDucati was established in 1926 by Antonio Ducati and his sons, initially producing electrical components. After WWII they moved into motorcycles with the Cucciola, essentially a pushbike with a clip-on engine. By the 1960s they had become associated with performance bikes selling a range of sporty 250 and 350 singles. In response to the demand for larger capacity bikes, chief engineer Fabio Taglioni designed the classic V-twin bevel drive engine first used in the 1971 GT750. This proved to be an immediate success, helped considerably by Paul Smart’s win in the 1972 Imola 200 race. This started a tradition of race-winning V-twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years. In 1998 the new version of the 900SS (Supersport) was styled by Pierre Terblanche with the traditional slab-sided fairing replaced with a more curvaceous look that was far more modern. This 900SS, being offered at 'no reserve', has been part of a private collection that is now being sold to make way for other projects. The bike has been stood for a few years and is missing its r/h silencer and l/h front and rear footrest hangers, making it an ideal winter project to either restore to standard or to create an interesting 'resto-mod' special. A well-specified bike in its day, with Brembo wheels and brakes and Showa suspension, it is offered with a current V5C.

Registration No: BF 6403 Frame No: 322956 MOT: ExemptA good usable Vintage machineRestored to a good standard in the 1990sUsed on VMCC events since completionCurrent V5C on fileTriumph introduced its first 3½HP model in 1907. It started life as a 453cc, its side-valve engine was then enlarged to 476cc and finally to 499cc in 1910, before being superseded by the 550cc 4HP model in 1914. It then benefitted from a 3-speed Sturmey-Archer gearbox; it was this revised version of the 4HP Model H, that served well in WWI, with more than 30,000 'Trusty Triumphs' seeing action with British and Allied forces. The 1922 Model H on offer, has been restored to a good standard by the previous owner and has been enjoyed since. Purchased by the vendor in 2013, it has been well maintained since its completion and has been used on many steam rallies and local events. For some reason, the machine is recorded as being registered in 1988, perhaps due to a lapse in the new DVLA computerisation of the 1980s. Always kept in good order, the Triumph is offered with a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: Not visible MOT: ExemptA beautiful example of the legendary Manx NortonAuthentically restored back to factory conditionQuaife 5 speed box and an extensive paperwork fileNorton's factory race bikes were experimental models, but a version was made available to selected customers and every top road racer from Geoff Duke to Mike Hailwood enjoyed success on a Manx at some point. This beautiful example has been entered from the collection of Brian Ditchfield, a retired engineer and lifelong motorcycle enthusiast who has in the past run a very successful Sidecar GP team, finishing in the top six for the 2003 World Championship. Bought by Brian in 2014 from a private collection in Germany and ridden by him occasionally on classic parades, it has been restored to a very high standard, keeping it as close to the original 1961 specification as possible. It comes supplied with an extensive paperwork file of technical information and set-up instructions that state the frame was made in May 1961, although the associated area is obscured under a good layer of paint. The engine number is 11M 93769 and it is fitted with an Amal T5 GP2 1 3/8" carb and a Lucas 2MTT racing magneto driving through a Quaife close ratio 5-speed gearbox. Not run for a while, it will need the normal checks before use. This is a fantastic example of one of the most iconic bikes ever made and an important part of motorcycle racing history.

Registration No: TKL 310 Frame No: 125LD78418 MOT: ExemptRestoration to finishEarly attractive LambrettaCurrent V5C for use on the road PLEASE NOTE: This vehicle was manufactured in 1954 and not 1952 as printed in the catalogue.The Lambretta LD Mk1 was first introduced in 1951 as a 125cc model and as a successor to the LC. It had covered panels over a tubular frame and had the addition of a torsion bar. This feature remained on all Lambrettas until 1958. The LD also had springs enclosed in the front forks.This example was purchased from the estate of a Somerset collector who had almost finished restoring it using a local well-respected painter to finish it in an original early LD colour scheme. We are also told the engine was overhauled and was known to be running circa 2012 when it was MOT’d and copies of the MOTs are included. With original parts all over, it would not take much, in our opinion, to finish this attractive example which has a V5C.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 2362633 MOT: ExemptFound in the loft of a houseNever registeredBrand new when storedUnder the name NSU Prima, the NSU works in Neckarsulm, Germany built motor scooters that replaced the NSU Lambretta, which had been manufactured under an Innocenti license since 1950. The first version, the Prima D, came onto the market in 1956 and was offered for about a year alongside the Lambretta, whose production ended in 1956 after 117,043 units were sold. By the end of the production period in 1964, 160,645 NSU scooters had been manufactured under the name 'Prima'.The NSU Prima was left to the current owner by their late father-in-law who recently passed away. The vendor was told about the NSU Prima many years ago and that he had it in parts in the loft. He said it was brand new and had never been registered as it was a leftover stock item when the business closed down and his father's motorcycle shop which was based in Ollerton, known locally as “Abdys”. It is not known when it was dismantled and placed into the loft, but every component was there, so it was able to be put back together. The engine is free and it has some storage marks on the paintwork. The overall condition is remarkable for its age and would make a great addition to a scooter collection. The NSU does not come with any documentation. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: ME00188 MOT: N/ARichards Darby's own personal classic race bikeMiles Engineering frame with a tuned T150 engineSecond in the Formula Classic Manx in 2013This Rob North Replica has been part of Richard Darby's personal collection since the 1980s. Richard, who sadly passed away in 2023, was a well respected character in classic restoration and racing circles, mainly as the proprietor of 3D Motorcycles. Regarded as one of the world's best restorers of classic Triumph motorcycles, Richard was respected by his many customers and friends in the UK and around the world and will be sorely missed. He not only specialised in repairing and modifying Triumphs but raced them himself and sponsored many riders over the years on bikes he had prepared.The launch of the Triumph Trident and BSA Rocket Three models coincided with the arrival of the glamorous Formula 750 races of the early 1970s, with events like the Daytona 200 and the UK v USA Match Race series becoming the most popular bike races in the world. With the advent of Formula 750 classic racing in the 1980s the Rob North framed Triumph and BSA triples staged a comeback with many replicas being made of the early 1970s works bikes. Richard built this bike for himself to race in the 80s and 90s and parade in later years using a Miles Engineering official Rob North replica frame and a T150 motor. As one of the foremost restorers and tuners of Triumph triples Richard gave the engine a full race tune with high compression pistons needing starting rollers to get it fired up. It was taken out of retirement to race in the Classic Superbike MGP in 2010, ridden by Gavin Lupton to 10th place against more modern bikes and finished under a second behind Dean Harrison in the 2013 Classic Formula race to claim second place. A well sorted replica with a good history, it last ran in September 2022 so will need the normal checks before use.

Registration No: W885 PWP Frame No: WB10411A7YZB94468 MOT: NoneCurrent ownership since 2007Purchased to be used on toursVery little use in the last couple of yearsThe BMW R1100RS was produced to be a sports touring motorcycle that was manufactured by BMW Motorrad between 1993 and 2001 and was the first BMW motorcycle to use the R259 'oil-head' boxer engine. The BMW R1100RS was a frameless design, using the engine as a stressed member, an approach used by BMW for all subsequent oil-heads (except the R1100S). BMW used its own Telelever suspension which bolted directly to the engine. The Telelever design has a superficially similar appearance to telescopic forks, but braking forces are taken back horizontally, minimising "fork dive".The BMW R1100RS was purchased by the current vendor as he needed a machine to go touring on and for work purposes. It has given him great pleasure in his ownership until it was no longer needed. It has not been used in the last couple of years but has been kept running in that time. The BMW comes complete with a V5C, its original panniers and the top box. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

This proved to be an immediate success, helped considerably by Paul Smart’s win in the 1972 Imola 200 race. This started a tradition of race-winning V-twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years. The limited edition of just 309 Superlights was launched in 1993, it was fitted with fully floating cast-iron brake discs, upgraded forks, upswept pipes, Marvic composite wheels, a sprinkling of carbon fibre here and there, with white panels for the racing numbers, plus the all-important numbered plaque on the headstock! Mk1 Superlights were the only ones with split rim Marvic wheels none were fitted to later series. All other series were limited runs of 500, however, only the MkV series had a very limited run of 309.On offer is a 1997 Ducati MkV 900 Superlight, purchased by the current owner approximately 10 years ago to form part of his collection of motorcycles. This Superlight is in very good original condition for its age and showing just c.10,056 miles from new. There is a good service history record and many invoices for parts and service work carried out since its first registration. This Ducati 900 Superlight has not been used in recent years and will require some degree of recommissioning before it is placed back on the road. It is offered with a V5C, service receipts, handbooks, a service book with 5 stamps, two sets of keys and a host of old MOT certificates.

Registration No: LVC 446 Frame No: RN 17377 MOT: ExemptRecently found in a shedMostly complete and a worthy projectOff the road since 1965Complete with its RF60 logbookFrancis and Barnett Ltd of Lower Ford Street, Coventry were formed in 1919 by Gordon Francis and Arthur Barnett. They were motorcycle manufacturers who, for the 1939 season, produced an autocycle called the "J50 Powerbike". The Francis-Barnett Powerbike followed the usual pattern, the first model having the Villiers Junior engine. Just after the K50 was announced for the 1940 season, the engine was changed to the new Junior de Luxe. A feature of the Powerbike was a rear hub brake was actuated by back-pedalling. This had a trip action that allowed it to be disconnected when wheeling the machine but automatically re-engaged it when the machine was ridden. When the war ended, the Powerbike was quickly re-introduced but it now had a girder fork that used rubber bands to provide the springing. In June 1947 Francis Barnett was amalgamated with AMC. This 1952 Francis Barnett Powerbike was put in the shed in 1965, and that's where it stood until it was rediscovered recently. It is mostly complete and still retains its original paintwork. The Francis Barnett comes with an old-style RF60 logbook, an original insurance document and a 1964 MOT certificate. It's an ideal to ride or restore project over the coming winter months.

Part of a small private collection since, it is presented in good original and unrestored condition, although the engine has been overhauled by a previous owner. The paintwork and chrome show some nice patina and even the clock lenses are in good order. This iconic early 1970s two-stroke superbike is still ftted with its distinctive chrome 3 into 4 exhaust system with all the reverse cones in place and started and ran when being photographed.

Campion Cycle Co Ltd were located at Robin Hood Street, Nottingham, and used a wide variety of proprietary engines in its motorcycle production, which ranged from 147cc two-stroke lightweights to mighty 996cc V-twins and sidecar outfits. This Campion was purchased by the current owner in 2012 to form part of his collection of early machines and to be used for VMCC events. It appears to have had an engine change at some point, with the original being reinstalled at a later date. The Campion is being offered with a current V5C, duplicate RF60, many Bruce Main-Smith catalogues and some old photographs from the 1980s. Please note: The V5C still states the old engine number.

Registration No: RSK 201 Frame No: 150LD 131060 MOT: ExemptOn offer from the estate of the late David NevePreviously restored at home by the late ownerOffered in need of recommissioningThe Lambretta LD was first introduced in 1951 as a 125cc model as a successor to the all-enclosed LC model. Following the success of the LD, a new Mk2 model was released in 1954 with substantial improvements. Firstly, the 150cc engine option was released for the first time, giving slightly more power to compete with the main Piaggio Vespa competitor. To slow all this new found power down, the rear brake was now cable controlled and the larger capacity machine's gear shift mechanism was now controlled by twin push-pull cable design rather than the troublesome single 'teleflex' cable. A small luggage box was fitted within the leg shields which housed the speedometer plus there was space for an extra gauge such as the now very sought after wind up clock if specified. The whole riding experience was much improved over the previous iteration and as a result the LD Mk2 was subsequently a very popular model and it is estimated approximately 104,889 were manufactured prior to replacement with the LD Mark III.Manufactured in 1955 and believed to have been supplied to the UK market when new, 'RSK 201' was acquired by the late David Neve in 2007 as a restoration project and was subjected to a home restoration by him over a number of years. Work included the replacement of a number of body panels including the sidepanels and mudguard and the original items are provided as spares. Mr Neve was a collector of small two stroke vehicles and H&H were recently entrusted by his son to sell the collection via the H&H October Duxford Imperial War Museum auction. Today 'RSK 201' is an attractive example of the LD150 which is in need of recommissioning due to Mr Neve having been unable to maintain the machine for a number of years prior to his passing and is supplied complete with a large number of spares.

Registration No: M236 OGS Frame No: ZX600E023484 MOT: NoneMostly standard and original ZZR600 sports bikeStill fitted with its original 'KHI K 302' exhaust systemA current V5C presentKawasaki Heavy Industries is one of the largest corporations in Japan, producing a wide range of products from rolling stock to ships. After taking over the ailing Meguro Motorcycle Company, they began manufacturing motorcycles under the Kawasaki name in the 1960s. In the early 1970s, the four-stroke four-cylinder Z1 was initially developed as a 750cc to compete with the new Honda SOHC 750, but Kawasaki held the bike back until it could be increased in capacity to set a new benchmark for superbike performance. Finally released in 1973, with its DOHC 900cc engine offering a top speed of over 130mph, it easily became the fastest mass-produced bike in the world. This started a long tradition of high-performance Kawasakis, with the launch of the GPz600 in 1985 ushering in the 600 sports bike bracket and the updated ZZR600 appearing a few years later.This ZZR600, being offered at without a reserve, is presented in mostly original trim and still fitted with its original Kawasaki 'KHI K 302' stamped four-into-two exhaust system with aftermarket stainless steel downpipes. Owned by the vendor since 1996, it has not been ridden or run for a while, so it will need recommissioning before use and comes fitted with a rear carrier, some old MOTs and a current V5C.

The newcomer utilised the 88's cycle parts to house a revised engine with a swept volume of 596cc (resulting from dimensions of 62 x 82mm). Regarded by many as being one of the finest motorcycles of its decade, the 99 was endowed with the best handling in its class, although it did not have the outright performance of the Triumph. On offer is a 'well-sorted' 1959 Norton Dominator 99, the current owner of some 15 years has looked after this machine as it was one of his favourites, evident from its use for many events and weekday VMCC meets. There are some 20 old MOT certificates on file with 17 old tax discs and an old RF60 logbook showing 1 owner from 1960-76. We have been advised the Norton is 'running well' and is being offered with a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Following the end of WW2, he, like many of his contemporary Italian industrialists required a product that would enable him to rebuild his shattered company based in the Milanese suburb of Lambrate. Therefore, the inspiration for the creation of the first Lambretta scooter can be found, like that of the rival Vespa, in the devastation that afflicted Italy following the Second World War and the country's desperate need for affordable transport. The new machine was unveiled at the 1947 Paris Show and featured a large tubular steel frame and was fitted with front and rear suspension. Power was provided by a two-stroke, single-cylinder engine with the early versions being offered as "open" models with no enclosure of the engine and only minimal leg shields and foot-boards but the introduction of the revised Model C in 1950 saw the option of an enclosed variant, the LC which established the appearance of the Lambretta for the rest of the fifties. By the 1960s the introduction of the Li range established the classic long and sleek Lambretta look that went on to become a style icon of the era culminating in the Bertone-designed 'Grand Prix' models of the late sixties.This beautifully presented Lambretta Li has been fully restored to a very high standard by its enthusiast vendor. The bodywork has been sandblasted back to bare metal and then professionally refinished in Metallic Red and Grey. It was subsequently rebuilt using stainless steel nuts and bolts wherever possible and fitted with many new parts including rubbers, cables, wheel rims, tyres, wiring harness, electrical switches and a new ignition switch. The engine has had a complete overhaul using new bearings, seals, gaskets and clutch plates, fitted with electronic ignition and finished off with a 185cc big bore kit. The scooter has some nice accessories including a rear carrier/backrest holding a spare wheel, separate sprung saddles and a fly screen. The standard of finish is excellent and a real credit to the restorer, it comes supplied with some receipts documenting the process and current V5C.

Sporadic production continued throughout the Pioneer period and by the 1920s they had a range of single-cylinder side valve models featuring either two or three-speed gearboxes and belt or chain final drive as well as a flat twin. Their machines quickly established an enviable reputation for reliability, enhanced in 1924 by Hugh Gibson's successful circuit of the British coast on a Raleigh combination and Marjorie 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. The rare Raleigh Model 17 was of unit construction and very advanced for the time.This example of the Model 17 has formed part of The Fred Evans Collection and was purchased by the late vendor in 2011 and was placed in the attic of a barn when purchased and that's where it stayed until we lowered it back down for the pictures to be taken. The engine turns over with compression, however, there is no documentation with this lot, but the Raleigh Motorcycle and Early Reliant Club should be able to help with an application for an age-related number.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 7415573 MOT: ExemptAn opportunity to acquire one of the world’s rarest VespasProduced on 4th January 1951One of only an estimated 40 GL2 survivors in the world** Source VVC Veteran Vespa clubAs the understanding of wide-frame ‘handlebar vespas becomes more widespread it is still a little known fact that the Douglas GL2 is possibly the most desirous Vespa model to emerge in recent times. The reasons for this is again down to Douglas’ slowness to keep up with improvements that were happening globally to Vespa bodywork. It encompassed the new twin port engine that the Piaggio VM1 and ACMA V54 range were using but was still stuck with the old Italian 1950 V30 style bodywork. Made only for a matter of months only 5505 GL2s were made and according to VVC archives only 40 are known to still exist. The result is that the GL2 has the best of both worlds with the old open wing style which today is far more desirous but the engine can be made to go like a rocket quite easily. Following the ‘Rod model’ launched in March 1951 and made until early 1954. The model G was launched in 1954 and differed from the rod model in that the gear control was by cable replacing the rod shift of earlier models. Despite this advancement the model G was still only on a par with the Italian V30 which had had the same dimensions and mechanical features since 1949. The GL2 was next to appear and was very similar to the G but fitted with the aforementioned twin port engine. The result in today's international collectors market is that British built Douglas Vespas have in recent times emerged with a really special rarity and collectibility status and the GL2 is one of the rarest off them all, and arguably the best when considering looks and practicality combined. The GL2 retained the beautiful lines and shape of the very early Italian Vespas except that the headlight was located on the front of the leg shield. It is the only ‘open wing’ (showing the flywheel) Vespa ever produced in the world with the twin port engine (upgradeable modern kits from Pinasco, Bollag, Enderle etc will fit easily whilst retaining the original engine casing).Here we offer a complete example in very presentable condition. We note that many of the the original parts have been retained all over the machine and wherever necessary original specification Douglas parts have been used in the restoration. It has a twin port genuine Douglas Service Replacement engine which retains its GL2 specification. We are informed that it was in full running condition when last asked to start. It has the rare Douglas supplied optional accessory rear rack and spare wheel holder. There are no documents but given the clear chassis number and assistance available from the Veteran Vespa Club registering this for the road should be a formality.

In the 1950s, the Dunkley Whippet 60 scooter was introduced in April 1957 and remained available until 1959. It first appeared at the 1956 Earls Court Show as the Mercury Whippet 60. Fitted with a 60cc OHV engine, designed by Bruno Fargion, the Whippet utilised an Italian frame. Other models of the mid-1950s included the Dunkley Popular Scooter, the 1958 65cc Dunkley Whippet scooter, and possibly the Mercette which may have been assembled by Dunkley after Mercury's demise.The 1950s Dunkerley Whippet S65 Scooter was being restored by the late owner, with most of the work being carried out to a good standard.

It had an engine based on the Li150 series but with an increased capacity and the crankshaft, barrel, piston and gearbox ratio were changed. The front forks were fitted with external shock absorbers. The Rear plate and fork links were redesigned to cope with the extra power. The TV175 models were fitted with a Veglia 120 km/h speedometer face and a dual seat. The ‘Lambretta’ and ‘TV175’ side panel badges were attached to the panels with small nuts as opposed to the riveted badges on the series 2 Li panels. Often referred to as the ‘tourer’ it had a superb performance coupled with beautiful styling and has been hugely sought after for many years by collectors.Our vendor purchased this extremely original machine directly from the Lambretta Museum in Weston Super Mare in 2021. It had previously been one of the display models in the museum and a letter from the museum confirms this. On examination we noted that the majority of the paint is untouched original whilst there are signs of over paint done so long ago that the patina has blended with the original to the point where it is almost unnoticeable without close examination. The original rough sound proofing paint is still everywhere it should be on the rare mudguard, cylinder head and inside the side panels. We could not see any replacement parts anywhere. The light control switch and ignition are original although just missing its half moon cap. Still on 6v points and just how you dream to find one of these. Original condition TV175 series 2s in such condition are very thin on the ground these days. No attempt was made to start the scooter although we are told it was running in 2021 when it was registered after leaving the museum.

After WWII they moved into motorcycles with the Cucciola, essentially a pushbike with a clip-on engine and by the 1960s had become associated with performance bikes, selling a range of sporty 125cc to 350cc singles. These Fabio Taglioni-designed OHC engines in the 1950s were quite advanced in the days of the more common pushrod engines offered by most other manufacturers providing far better performance. The 175 proved to be a popular mount for competition use in Italy and its stand-out feature is probably the beautifully sculpted fuel tank, designed to allow the rider to hug the bike while gripping the clip-ons, with brackets on the tank to fasten a chin pad for racers who really wanted to get their head down. The launch of the Taglioni-designed 750cc bevel drive engine in 1971 proved to be an immediate success, helped considerably by Paul Smart's win in the 1972 Imola 200 race, starting a tradition of race-winning V-twins that have gone on to dominate World Superbike racing over the years.This stunning-looking Ducati 175 was owned for a number of years ago by a renowned clock engineer who expected the same attention to detail on the restoration as needed on timepieces, once completed it was then kept on display in his front room. It is presented in the style of the 'Sport' model with short mudguards, alloy rims, clip-on handlebars, twin silencers and that wonderfully curvaceous fuel tank. A rare bike in the UK when its cost 'new' would have been double the price of a similar-sized British bike. The standard of workmanship needs to be seen to be appreciated. Not run for a while, it will need recommissioning and comes supplied with a V5C. For more information, please contact: Ian Cunningham ian.cunningham@handh.co.uk 07415871189

The cafe racer style is still popular today with most modern-day manufacturers including the style in their range. Unfortunately, the original Norton engines were not as reliable, so an obvious answer was to replace them with the stronger and more readily available Triumph twin, starting a whole cottage industry in handmade specials.This 1972 Triton was built by the first owner way back in the 1970s, it appears to have been constructed well and now has an aged look about it. It is based around a Norton featherbed frame and a Triumph T100 all-alloy engine. The current vendor purchased the Triton in 2011, used it for a very short time and placed it in the living room. It has not been used for a few years and would now benefit from some recommissioning before it is placed back on the road. The Triton is offered with its V5C.

Barter's defunct Light Motor Company enterprise, Barter coming to work for Douglas. Having two cylinders horizontally opposed 180 degrees to each other was much the same elegant solution to twin-cylinder engine design as adopted by over fifty other motorcycle manufacturers, although Douglas chose a longitudinal layout for their early twins. By 1910, a clearly dedicated Eli Clarke had ridden a Douglas with a 35mph top speed, 900 miles down the length of the UK in 39 hours 40 minutes!On offer is a 1914 Douglas 2¾HP machine that was purchased new by a Mr Diederichs who owned the Douglas until he sold it to a Mr Clare in 1957. It was then sold to Brian Verrall in 1964 who in turn sold it to a Mr Merod, who then sold it back to Brian Verrall in 1978, when the current owner purchased it. The current owner then sold it back to Mr Verrall in 1999, who then sold it to Mr Peter Lancaster. Once again it was sold back to Mr Verrall and re-sold back to the current owner. Across ownership, the engine had a mechanical failure, and a 1914 replacement engine was found and is still in the machine to this day. The original engine comes with the machine.

Established in Coventry in 1885, by the start of the 1900s the company had made their first motorcycle beginning a continuous run of production under various ownership until its eventual closure in 1983. In 1937 the Edward Turner-designed Speed Twin was released launching a range of Triumph twins that went on to epitomise British motorcycles in the post-war years. The basic layout survived in various engine sizes up to 750cc until the eventual closure of the factory in the early 1970s. Triumph staged a remarkable comeback in the 1990s with a range of completely new machines very much based on the spirit of bikes like the original Speed Twin.This 1957 Triumph Speed Twin has been sitting in the shed since at least 1979, when it was last on the road. Stored for many years, this matching numbers Triumph Speed Twin would make a great winter project. The engine turns over with some compression.

They have gone on to produce over 400 million two-wheelers as well as millions of other power products. The legendary CB750/4 was launched in 1969 to great acclaim and laid down the blueprint for the modern-day superbike, beginning a range of SOHC Honda fours ranging from 350cc upwards. By the 1980s the engines now sported double overhead cams with 4 valves per cylinder. The Nighthawk 700 was a model developed especially for the US market to avoid import tariffs designed to protect Harley Davidson and was based on the 16 valve CBX750 more commonly available in Europe.This bike looks to have been imported into the UK in 1997 and is presented in an authentic and original condition, still fitted with its very typical of the period Black chrome 4 into 2 exhaust system. A good-looking bike with its all-Black engine and Honda US racing-style Blue, White and Red colour scheme, it comes supplied with its US Title and a V5C.

In its pre-war guise, this Split Single two-stroke displaced 240cc. The Split Single's powerplant, featuring a cast iron barrel with alternating deep and shallow fins, was offered in two guises, the 'S' with a Pilgrim oil pump providing the engine lubrication and the 'T' which relied on the petrol system of lubrication. Both versions employed a rigid duplex frame with a cast bronze backbone and steering head fitted with Dowty oleo-pneumatic forks. 7-inch brakes were employed with two drums gracing the front wheel. A Burman four-speed gearbox provided the transmission which was characterised by a high overall ratio in the interests of fuel economy.According to the RF60, first registered on 20th April 1951, this EMC Split Single 'Special' is reported to have been purchased many years ago by the late vendor and some restoration work has been carried out. It has been stored in the shed for many years and only recently came to light due the the passing of the late owner.

The 180 versions were well received for their performance and appearance. Only 26,494 were produced before the 200 version which are more common replaced it. Generally based on the previous Super Sport the real star of the rally was its new powerful rotary valve engine. With a larger fuel tank for longer journeys and reduction in the necessary fuel mix down to 2% the Rally 180 really was a major improvement on the previous models. Still with classic lines the Rally is considered to be the last of the ‘real metal’ large engined Vespas before the P-range arrived with its many plastic parts.We understand the the first owner from new was a Wayne Fraser of Newcastle who sold it to an Andrew Brocklehorst who in turn sold it to our vendor recently. However our vendor has also applied for a new V5C in his sons name which will add another owner. There are a number of early tax discs which give some provenance going back to 1977.Mechanically this scooter is very good in our opinion and is in mostly original paint. The chassis number has been partially obscured by some black paint applied by a previous owner which could be removed however luckily the number was photographed before he did that. The MPH speedometer is the original and showing 9687 miles. All keys are present for steering lock, toolbox and ignition. The engine with correct number VSD1M 0025887 has been thoroughly overhauled at Disco Dez Scooters using correct parts throughout. The floor has been replaced at some point but as we agreed with the mechanic at Disco Dez the work has been done really well and it handles on the road as it should. Our consultant was also able to ride it on the road and can confirm that this is so. The scooter has new BGM wheel rims and brand new S83 Michelin tyres. This is a perfect rally going scooter with great looks and a super reliable Rally engine that is running as new. Rally 180s with this original look are very hard to find now.

After a typically rocky few years for manufacturers in the early part of the century, in 1932 Jack Sangster bought Ariel from the receivers at a bargain price. The company was renamed Ariel Motors (J.S.) Ltd, and promptly resumed production in a new factory in Selly Oak Birmingham and one of their first bikes produced was the Ariel Square Four designed by Edward Turner followed by the Ariel Red Hunter. The Red Hunter was such a success it enabled Ariel to purchase Triumph motorcycles, eventually becoming part of the BSA group in 1951. Designed by Val Page and Bernard Knight, the Ariel Leader featured a 250cc two-stroke engine suspended from a monocoque frame fabricated from pressed steel panels. The fuel tank was hidden inside this structure and accessed by lifting the hinged dual seat and a dummy petrol tank was used for storage, large enough to fit a spare crash helmet. The fully enclosed bodywork, first developed by Phil Vincent for the innovative Vincent Black Prince, was the most prominent feature with none of the working parts of the motorcycle in view.This bike is being offered at 'no reserve' from a deceased estate. An unfinished project, it started life as standard Arrow but the late vendor, a retired mechanical and electrical engineer who had raced Yamahas in the Manx Grand Prix in the early 1970s, was rebuilding it to Leader specification. It is supplied with many spare parts to finish off the conversion/restoration and will make a fascinating winter project to complete. It is offered with a V5C.

He poured all of his sporting experience into developing his own brand of motorcycle and in 1965 the Vampire 60 was launched, an eye-catching racer built especially for competition use. Eventually becoming better known for off-road models, they made the occasional road bike, such as the 350cc 'Hare and Hounds' model. This had a two-stroke engine based on their trials bike with mono-shock rear suspension aimed at the dual-purpose on/off-road market.This rare example of Italjet's 350 trail bike is presented in an original unrestored condition, with just a credible 460 miles (c.740km) on its speedo, perhaps supported by the tyres showing very little wear. Only around 4 examples were thought to have been imported into the UK. Not much is known of its history and it has been part of a small private collection for some while, however, the bike has obviously seen very little use and would make an interesting talking point at any classic bike show or event. Not run recently, it will require recommissioning before use, but is offered with a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Ian Cunningham ian.cunningham@handh.co.uk 07415871189

Registration No: GGP 100N Frame No: R1091 MOT: ExemptOne private owner machine from newA rare Rickman InterceptorNot many were produced at the timePaperwork on fileBy 1971, the Rickman brothers of Rickman Engineering in the U.K. had already established a reputation for constructing motorcycle chassis of incredible rigidity, enabling the highest performance engines of the day to be matched up with a chassis that allowed their full potential. One of Rickman’s special short production runs was for a group of bikes equipped with the Royal Enfield MkII 750 cc Interceptor engine; the bike was known as the Rickman Enfield Interceptor. The extreme rarity of the Rickman Enfield 750 Interceptor by itself would be enough to make the bike a history-making motorcycle.On offer is an extremely rare and very limited produced Rickman Enfield 750 Interceptor that is believed to have been purchased new by the late owner in 1974 from Elite Motors of Tooting, London. It has been confirmed that this is a genuine machine with a certificate of authenticity from Metisse Motorcycles Ltd confirming it was sold by Elite Motors. It was carefully looked-after by the late owner and was kept until it was taken off the road due to his age. The Rickman Interceptor comes complete with its bill of sale, Elite Motors paperwork, a certificate of newness from the Rickman Works dated 1972 various information with regards to Royal Enfield, and a current V5C. Some recommissioning will be required before placing it back on the road. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 15229 MOT: ExemptChance of a lifetime to own an 'as new' RE5'New Old Stock', never registered and with 5 'push kilometres'Purchased by the late vendor 30 years agoTotally original and kept in the houseThe Suzuki Motor Co. was established in 1909 by Michio Suzuki to produce machinery for the cotton industry. An initial diversification into 4 wheeled transport was curtailed by WW2 but after the war Japan had a need for cheap reliable transport so Suzuki, like a lot of others around the world, began to produce clip-on engines for pushbikes. These proved to be an immediate success and soon they were making full motorcycles and by the early '60s were second only to Honda in number of two-wheelers manufactured. Known for their two strokes, Suzuki were at the forefront of the race to develop the Felix Wankel rotary engine concept releasing the RE5 in 1975, still the world's only mass-produced rotary-engined motorcycle. Whilst a technological masterpiece it was perhaps ahead of its time and only about 5000 were made between 1975 and 1976.On offer is quite possibly the last 'brand-new' Suzuki RE5 left to come onto the open market and without reserve! This particular RE5 was purchased by the late vendor many years ago and was put straight into the house. The owner was only interested in the Suzuki RE5 range and was regarded as having a great collection of spares and RE5s. The Suzuki is factory stock in every way and has been carefully looked after in his ownership. It is a European spec., originally from France (paperwork on file). The engine turns over with compression and has not had any fluids in it whilst in the vendor's ownership. One for the Suzuki RE5 collector or a museum.

Registration No: 758 XWB Frame No: VS5T0057985 MOT: ExemptMammoth creation by Retrospective Scooters, LondonSpecialised parts by Lino Brotto, Italian restoration master and fabricator for The Piaggio Museum.Now fully running with a V5C presentThe Vespa Six Day Racers Sei Giorni were the special Piaggio works race machines for the endurance race tournaments held back in the 1940's and early 1950's by all the big Italian two wheel manufacturers to prove that their bikes and scooters were tough and reliable. They would race them around Italy over the rough road surfaces (just after the war) and they they competed with Lambretta, but also Ducati, MV Augusta, Laverda, Moto Guzzi, Bianchi and many more. These six day racers were not any ordinary factory specification Vespa but an improved modified, strengthened and tuned scooter to combat the semi off road conditions, reliability being the key and make it to the end of that days course.This machine is an evocation of the very last version of the Sei Giorni with the 10" wheels and twin spare wheels. Retrospective Scooters of London used the chassis of a notably 1959 Douglas Vespa as the basis of the project. They actually flew to Italy to meet Lino Brotto, the famous restorer of many of the rarest Vespa models for the Piaggio factory museum. Lino provided many specialist parts needed to make a six-day racer replica and also showed them the skills required to replicate the bodywork of this special racer. The London Scooter Bodyshop undertook the mammoth task of moulding and metal fabrication of the frame into the specialist racer body shape adding special extra strength plates and leg shield shaping. Specialist parts include the long-range tank, map holder, spare wheel holders, shortened handlebars, side stand, seamless mudguard, strengthened swing arm, engine panel catches and holder, air intake and bash plates.The engine is a GS150 with an extra curved kickstart, special flywheel and cylinder cowling. We are informed that the scooter starts and runs 'like new' and is the ultimate copy of this iconic Vespa Factory racer of which there were only around 100 made. This was made with the intention to be an exact copy using the official book as a guide and copying it down to the last detail.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 33580 MOT: ExemptRepainted and largely completeGood project to finishRare imported scooterZundapp was a major German manufacturer of motorcycles which began production of motor scooters in 1953 with the well-engineered ‘Bella’. Starting at 146cc the scooter was heavy and in 1954 the engine size was increased to 200cc. This early 146cc example is rare as the smaller-engined version was apparently only in production for a short time. We understand that it was imported recently. It is mainly complete and in good condition. The seat is in very good original condition and it has an accessory side stand. There are no documents, but the scooter is supplied with an original operation and maintenance manual and a copy of the spare parts catalogue for a R154. The frame number is visible and clear, so registration should be straightforward. The vendor is only selling as he bought the scooter in error at another recent auction for £3100, thinking it was the larger engined R203. Offered for sale with no reserve.

Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: Not visible MOT: ExemptLast of the big capacity twin-shock motocrossersBrutal 47hp piston ported two-stroke enginePresented in authentic unrestored conditionMaico was famed for its off-road bikes with its motocross and enduro models proving to be very successful in both European and American competition throughout the 1970s. Whilst lacking the financial backing that companies like Honda, Yamaha, Suzuki, and Kawasaki could provide, riders such as Adolf Weil, Åke Jonsson and Willy Bauer proved to be serious challengers to the Japanese factories and achieved numerous top-three finishes in the Motocross World Championships. Replicas of the Works bikes were offered to the general public and in the early 1980s the 250 and 490 models were considered to be the best twin-shock bikes available, and in subsequent years described by American publication 'Motocross Action' as 'the greatest open-class motocross bikes of all time.' This example of Maico's era-defining twin-shock two-stroke motocross machine has been part of a small private collection for the last few years. It proved to be the end of an era for twin-shock motocrossers with the arrival of single-shock rear suspension taking over in the 1980s and spelling the end for small European manufacturers like Maico. This rare survivor is presented in a very original and unrestored condition. It has not been run for a while, so will need some recommissioning before use. The engine number is MT3363360 suggesting a 250 set of cases, but looking at the size bore size (see photo) the top end looks to be 490.

Registration No: 133 GKL Frame No: 028499 MOT: ExemptPurchased in 1972Owned for the last 52 yearsSome battle scarsOriginally introduced for the 1939 season, the Triumph Tiger 100 quickly became a symbol of British engineering excellence. This particular 1959 model, purchased by the current vendor in 1972, showcases the evolution of the Tiger 100 series. In 1950, the head and barrel were upgraded to aluminium castings, and by 1957, it featured a twin port head. The pre-unit construction was eventually replaced by a unit construction machine for the 1960 model year.The vendor used this T100 for commuting to college and work before it was laid up for many years after acquiring a car. Later, the vendor and a friend restored the bike, bringing it back to life for occasional rides and VMCC events. This well-maintained machine has been a reliable companion. An interesting note is the discrepancy in the engine and frame numbers, with the continuation logbook showing ‘028199’ and the current V5C showing ‘028499’. This is likely a ‘typo’ error in the logbook. The stamping appears correct and a letter from the TOMCC confirms the engine/chassis number belongs to ‘133 GKL’. Included in the sale are a Dating Certificate from the TOMCC and the current V5C. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217

It was an improved 'sports bike' member of the BSA A10 series of motorcycles which was developed from the BSA Road Rocket. The A10 had a reputation for reliability but was struggling to compete against the Triumph engines and the Norton featherbed frames.On offer is a 1962 BSA Super Rocket that was purchased by the current owner in 2010. In his ownership, the bike has given him many years of pleasure on local club runs and rides to the coast. The BSA was restored approximately 20 years ago with the engine reputed to have been overhauled by SRM at that time. Now showing some signs of use, the restoration is still holding up well. The Super Rocket is offered complete with a current V5C, lots of old MOT certificates and some receipts for parts.

At a time when most manufacturers were transitioning to unit construction, AJS chose to retain a separate gearbox for this Matchless model. The G2 employed butterfly valve springs and an oil tank integrated into the engine case casting.On offer at No Reserve, this Matchless G2 has been owned by the late vendor since 2003. During his 21 years of ownership he has carried out various mechanical work to keep it in running order until it was laid up due to other projects. The engine still turns over with compression. Requiring some degree of recommissioning before use, the machine is offered with a file containing receipts for parts and some old MOT certificates, along with a current V5C.

Registration No: 739 UXK Frame No: 175TV 222439 MOT: ExemptVery presentable in correct Tyrol Blue colourRunning very well at the time of consignmentV5 for use on UK roadsThe Lambretta TV175 Series 2 was launched in October 1959. It had an engine based on the Li150 series but with an increased capacity and the crankshaft, barrel, piston and gearbox ratio were changed. The front forks were fitted with external shock absorbers. The Rear plate and fork links were redesigned to cope with the extra power. The TV175 models were fitted with a Veglia 120 km/h or 70 mph speedometer face and a dual seat. The ‘Lambretta’ and ‘TV175’ side panel badges were attached to the panels with small nuts as opposed to the riveted badges on the series 2 Li panels. Often referred to as the ‘tourer’ it had a superb performance coupled with beautiful styling and has been hugely sought after for many years by collectors.This presentable and fully operational (at the time of consignment) example was, in our opinion, probably British registered from new with a battery tray, Concessionaires badge and MPH speedometer, which shows 7,968 miles. The current owner has had the scooter since 2005 and is a well-known senior member of several Vintage scooter clubs in the UK. He has kept a fastidious book record of everything he has done on the scooter from 2007 to the present, right down to the oil changes! This record is supplied with the scooter. The numbers match correctly and it is in standard TV175 specification with its original Giuliari seat. The only upgrade that we could see is the conversion to 12v electronics and a later SH2/22 carburettor. All keys are present, including the original steering lock with its original flap. Again, we are told by the vendor that it rides as it should and we were able to see the scooter performing well at the time of consignment. It only comes to market because the vendor is now unable to ride it due to health problems, therefore the scooter is sensibly priced to sell.

Registration No: 387 ALM Frame No: 201048 MOT: ExemptUK registered from newWith original blue logbookTransferable registration numberProject scooter chassisV5C for use on UK roadsDürkoppwerke's history began in 1867 when Heinrich Dürkopp started making sewing machines out of the backroom of a clockmakers shop. In 1870 they moved to their own premises in Bielefeld adding shoe making machines. In 1885 the firm began making bicycles and ball bearings. By 1898 the firm began making cars and motorcycles including the famous Knipperdolling small car. However after WW1 the company was in debt and the automobile division was sold to Mercedes Benz. Durkopp continued to make cylindrical bearings including for tanks and weapons during WW2. After the war the company jettisoned its bearings business and returned to sewing machines, bicycles and motorcycles including scooters.The Durkopp Diana scooter was launched in 1953 and was splashed across the headlines early in production when Miss Germany ‘won’ a Diana in 1954. It was extremely well built with sleek lines and was ahead of most of the competition with a powerful engine that produced 9.5 HP and the headlight on the handlebars. The later 194cc 4 speed Sport model produced 12 HP and could reach speeds of 100 km/h while the 171cc Sport TS version produced 10.8 HP. Weighing in at 150kg (330 lbs) the Diana had remarkable luxurious build quality all over. The electrics were Bosch 12 volt electric start (with kick start as back up) and used a number of fuses in a car style fusebox. The foot gear change could be knocked into neutral regardless of which gear you were in (positive neutral). Hella lights were as standard all over (the rear lights are the same as used on the Messerschmidt KR bubble cars). The attention to detail is impressive with small details such as chromed aluminium and rubber strips on the side panel edging to protect the side panels where they meet the chassis, heel strips to protect the side panels against passenger shoes, wide foot boards for the pillion and 4 floor strips each side for the riders feet. The large Denfeld dual seat was impressively sprung with comfortable support for the pillion. The embellishers on the side panels are chrome over brass. Apart from keys for the ignition, seat and tool box there was a further ‘secret key’ hidden from view in the upper part inside the tool box. A total of 24,963 Dianas in all forms were produced before production ended in 1962. In Great Britain Diana Concessionaires based in Molesworth, Surrey offered a range of optional accessories and had a service centre in Hampton Wick, Surrey. Available in 1961 for the princely sum of £219 10s 9d, it was more expensive than the Lambretta TV175 Series 2 (£189 17s 6d), or the Vespa GS (£188 8s 3d). In 1961 a road test by Scooter News Mechanics summarised that ‘the Diana in any of its forms was one of the best scooters made today’.Here we present a rare Mk2 TS Sport chassis with the fixed headlight. The original black paint is in very good condition and the chassis is virtually rust free.The original starter key is present as is the fuel tank. Despite not having an engine the scooter is fully road registered with modern V5C and the number plate is transferable. The full range of parts needed including engine are all available (except a seat) in Lot XX. Only for sale as the vendor can no longer use it due to his age.

It is the predecessor of the Yamaha FZ6. During its production run, it underwent several changes before being discontinued in 2004, due to European emissions laws coming into force. The FZS600 was first unveiled at the Paris Auto Show in 1997, and shares parts from other Yamaha models, notably the engine from the YZF600R Thundercat, detuned to give more mid-range power.On offer is a very clean low mileage 1999 Yamaha FZS 600 Fazer that appears to have been very well looked after by all its owners since it has been registered from new. Showing just over 21,000 miles from new, the Fazer has a current MOT until August 2025 and is described as 'on the button' and has been used recently by its current owner. It is being offered with a current V5C, 2 sets of keys, receipts when purchased by the second owner handbook and service book.

Registration No: ALC 707A Frame No: 521926 MOT: ExemptComprehensively maintainedUsed regularly until recentlySupplied with spare original engineV5C for use on UK roadsThe Lambretta TV175 Series 3 was launched in March 1962 and it was the first scooter supplied with an internal disc brake. It was a remarkable change from the previous TV175 series 2 with new sleek slim styling. The front shock absorbers were enhanced with extra dampers as in the previous TV series 2 models. The TV series 3 also had larger silent blocks than the previous engines and it had a very good reputation as a smooth and well-balanced scooter with great handling attributes. This presentable and fully operational example was, in our opinion, British registered from new. The vendor has had the scooter since 2007 and is a well known senior member of several vintage scooter clubs in the UK. He has kept a fastidious record of everything he has done on the scooter from 2007 to the present day, this record is supplied with the scooter. The engine was changed for a GP200 engine and we are told by the vendor that 'it runs beautifully'. We noted that all the good original parts are there including the front disc braked Giuliari seat with faux leopard cover. The original rough sound deadening paint is still visible on the rear mudguard and on the inside of the side panels. It has been converted to 12v electronics and has quality Continental whitewall tyres. An accessory leg shield box has been added and all keys for the scooter are present. We were able to start and run the scooter at time of consignment. For more information, please contact: Paul Diamond info@vintagescooters.co.uk 07768 313001

The Matchless 600cc G11, together with its equivalent AJS Model 30, was developed to compete with the big vertical twins being offered by the rival BSA/Triumph group at the time. The G11CSR was launched by AMC as a sports model featuring a lightweight frame developed for the off-road singles together with a Siamese 2-into-1 exhaust, slim alloy mudguards, tan vinyl seat and distinctive chrome-plated suspension covers.From a deceased estate, this CSR has been part of an enthusiast's small private collection for the last 20 years. Unusually, for one of these bikes produced mainly for the US market the V5C, showing engine no. 58/G11CS 06750, suggests it has spent its entire life in the UK, being first registered in August 1958. An attractive bike presented in authentic condition, it looks to have been restored at some point, whilst maintaining a good degree of originality. A rare model that was only produced for one year in 1958, it has been stood for a while, so will need recommissioning before use and comes supplied with a current V5C.

They soon began to produce their own engines and started to compete in sports events to promote the marque. Bultó designed a 125cc roadster, which was tested in many of the trials and off-road events that were popular in Spain at the time and this model went on to enter the 1951 International Six Days Trial ridden by Bultó and G. Cavestany. In 1958, chief designer Bultó left, starting his own company under the Bultaco brand name, beginning many years of fierce competition between the two companies. Together with another Spanish firm, Ossa, they went on to dominate trials and enduro events in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s, with Montesa winning numerous world championships. This beautifully presented H6 250 Enduro model was bought by the vendor a couple of years ago after undergoing an extensive restoration in Spain by Saul Salvador. The degree of authenticity and the quality of the work is exceptional on this rare Enduro model. The new speedo fitted during the rebuild shows just 19km, indeed, the engine still needs running in. The bike is UK registered and is supplied with a current V5C. For more information, please contact: Ian Cunningham ian.cunningham@handh.co.uk 07415871189

The regulations there meant that pedals were required to allow the mopeds into the bicycle category and thus required no license plate. The 49.77cc 2 stroke engine with a standard kickstart also incorporated a special chain mechanism with pedals that drove the unique rear hub and propelled the scooter forward in this fashion. It could also be used with the kickstart as a standard scooter. Much else was like a standard Vespa 50 with coil spring and hydraulic shock absorber on both wheels. The other noticeable difference was that the special frame was narrowed at the footboards to allow pedalling and a cover attached to protect the chain sprocket mechanism at the front. The rear hub was also a completely unique design also to allow a sprocket to catch the rear drive of the chain. It was the only Vespa built with theses unique features and these models are extremely collectible amongst serious Vespa collectors. Some models were sold new in Italy and Great Britain but this was a very rare occurrence. This model is also unique in that it is the only Vespa in more modern times to have never been fitted with a brake light due to the bicycle category it fell into. It is unfortunate however that in many cases the owners simply disconnected the pedals and threw them away.This 50 Pedalo is a very rare find indeed. She is on the UK DVLA system as first registered January 1975. From this we can deduce that she was sold new in the UK at that time. She was discovered by 2 Wheeled engineering of Nottingham who sold the scooter to our vendor. She has since been treated to a very high quality restoration by Disco Dez Scooters in the correct Vespa yellow colour of time after being discovered in a blue colour. She has had the full works as a standard scooter including a fully rebuilt standard engine on 6V Points, new cables, lights, speedometer, brakes and wiring. Throughout she is like new and we were able to start the scooter on first kick and our consultant was able to ride the scooter on the road. The entire pedal system is as the original with the correct Way pedals, new chain and all correct running gear. The spindle was remade by an engineer as an exact copy of the original that was sourced. All of the badges are original and the lights front and rear are correct originals. The seat is the correct style of seat for the era. To give an idea of the rarity of the pedal mechanism parts Disco Dez, one of the most connected people in the world of scootering, has taken 5 years to find the parts get this scooter finished. This is a must for any serious Vespa collection. This most rare and sought after Vespa model seldom comes onto the market.

Registration No: BHF 557A Frame No: D76290 MOT: ExemptOne man's vision and creationSuperbly created machineA great promotional machine for any shop or businessThe Birmingham Small Arms factory was established in the Small Heath area of Birmingham in 1861 and, as the name suggests, manufactured weapons. Around the turn of the century they started making bicycles and progressed to motorcycles a few years later. BSA went on to become one of the world's largest producers of motorcycles until its demise in the early 1970s. The Bantam, introduced in 1948 as a 125cc, was not only their best-selling model but would become one of the best-selling British-made bike of all time.This 1959 BSA Bantam 'butcher's motorcycle' was created by the previous owner over a two-year period. Created out of parts he had lying around in the shed, the previous owner decided he wanted to make a BSA 'butcher's motorcycle' as he thought it would be something completely different to own. The 'butcher's bike' is based around a 1959 BSA Bantam D7 frame with a D10 engine and subsequently restored to a very high standard. As is evident, the frame has been altered in such a way that it looks like it has been built by the factory, with its framework at the front and rear for the baskets. Believed to be the only configuration of this type in existence, once completed, it was shown at many events and always caused a stir wherever it went. A great promotional machine for any shop or business, the BSA is being offered with a current V5C, however, it may need checking over due to a short time in storage.

Regarded as one of the world's best restorers of classic Triumph motorcycles, Richard was respected by his many customers and friends in the UK and around the world and will be sorely missed. He not only specialised in repairing and modifying Triumphs but raced them himself and sponsored many riders over the years on bikes he had prepared. The launch of the Triumph Trident coincided with the arrival of the glamorous Formula 750 races of the early 1970s, with events like the Daytona 200 and the UK v USA Match Race series becoming the most popular bike races in the world. This rare ex Works racer was put together in Doug Hele's experimental department for Tony Jeffries to race in the 1972 season as one of only 8 bikes made for the official factory team. It was ridden by him to second place in that year's Formula 750 TT followed up by a third-place finish in 1973 as well as wins at Scarborough and Brands Hatch in the MCN championship. The 1972 bikes featured Rob North's new 'Lowboy' frame surrounding a modified and tuned T150 engine with a distinctive letterbox fairing. Interestingly, the engine, numbered GC04077 T150T, fitted into Tony's 1972 bike had previously been used in the Trident that had won the prestigious 1970 and 1971 Bol'd Or 24-hour endurance races in France. By 1974, Triumph's financial position forced them to close the race shop and the bike was bought directly from the factory by Mel Farrah who continued to race it, including setting a lap record at Scarborough. Mel eventually passed the bike on to Richard in 2015, who recommissioned it for use in classic parades being last run at Beezumph in 2023 when an oil leak was noticed from the crankcase joint that will need some attention. Of the 8 Lowboy framed racers made in 1972, this is probably the most authentic example of this iconic and historically important bike. It will be supplied with an interesting letter of provenance from the previous owner, who cherished the bike for around 40 years and an insurance valuation from the TR3OC Trident and Rocket 3 Owner's Club describing it as 'probably the most complete and original of all the Works bikes'.

Registration No: FEA 119C Frame No: TV3 551373 MOT: ExemptFront cover star scooter for Scootering Magazine August 2006Good numbers and in great conditionHuge amount of accessoriesVery presentableThe Lambretta TV175 series 3 was launched in March 1962 and it was the first scooter supplied with an internal disc brake. It was a remarkable change from the previous TV175 series 2 with new sleek slim styling. The front shock absorbers were enhanced with extra dampers as in the previous TV series 2 models. The TV series 3 also had larger silent blocks than the previous engines and it had a very good reputation as a smooth and well-balanced scooter with great handling attributes. The larger engined TV200 quickly followed the TV175 slim style in early 1963 at the specific request of the British importer Lambretta Concessionaires who wanted an even more powerful model than the TV175 to satisfy their customer base. Genuine TV200 Lambrettas were instantly recognised as the GT200 to differentiate them from the TV175 models.Sadly, from a deceased estate this TV200 is a British sold version with battery tray and is a well presented example painted in a very high quality deep paint scheme of Paul Smith’ design. The numbers are correct for a TV200 and the month of manufacture from TV200 Club records is July 1965. The scooter has been on display indoors as pride of place for many years and this has resulted in the paintwork being in very good conditions can be seen from the photographs. A well known scooter on the Birmingham mod scene in the 2000s it has been the subject of detailed decoration and appears to be in super condition. In 2006 the scooter appeared in a double page spread article and indeed on the front cover of Scootering Magazine and a copy of the magazine is provided with the lot. The speedometer appears to be original and correct. The ignition also looks original with a 133 key number. The engine turns but we did not attempt to start it as it was indoors but we are told it was running when it was put inside. Certainly the engine casing appears to have done very little work and is in great condition with the correct SHI/20 original Dellorto carburettor present. The scooter has had a quality Ducati CD1 12 volt conversion. Keys are present for the ignition and inside leg shield tool box which is an Ulma style version. The ignition key has what appears to be an original Esso Tiger fob. The tyres are quality Continental whitewalls.In addition to the attractive paintwork, where the scooter really shines is in the myriad of original and reproduction accessories that adorn this machine. Collectively these accessories would take a long time to collect and certainly have a high monetary value too. The list is substantial but includes: Triple Fiamm original air horns facing to the rear, double air horns in the tool box, a quality leopard design Pegasus seat (possibly of Rimini origin), an Ulma style horncast badge, Ulma style Florida bars, Ulma style double legshield trim, An original Ulma front rack adorned with original spotlights which is a mix of 3 original Radyots with orange lenses, 6 big original Miller spotlights and a big Stadium spotlight. There are also original Desmo badges. To the front the fork boots are possibly original Super versions without badges, and the dampers have white rubber gaiters and the bumper bar is an original Vigano correct series 3 type. There are attractive period bullet lights underslung each side in a triple cluster. To the rear there is a registration plate surround and accessory side lights. The rear rack appears to be an original Nannucci sold Cuppini rack and the spare wheel held there has an original Vigano Turbo wheel disc and spinner. The mirrors are Biemme original rectangular and Metalplast style round mirrors.The rubber parts all appear to be original and in matching green for the hand grips, brake rubber, stand and kick start rubbers and mudflap. The handlebars are finished off with original tassles.As previously mentioned this is a deceased estate sale and unfortunately the documents could not be found. However the scooter is on the DVLA system so registration should not be an issue and we have performed an HPI check which returned fine.
