1951 AJS Model 20 Spring Twin, 500cc. Registration Number: MAL 551 (non-transferable). Frame Number: 62806. Engine Number: 51/20/5297. Gearbox: G111L50. The AJS Model 20 and corresponding Matchless G9 were launched at the post war Earls Court Motorcycle Show in late 1948. Initially for export to the us, it was not until the late summer of 1949 the the first examples reached the home market. The styling was modern and the dual seat, megaphone silencers and bright chrome finish justified the name of Spring Twin. The rest of the cycle parts were standard AMC, with the engine being housed in a pivoted fork frame with telescopic front forks. The basic design changed little over the course of the next few years, the most significant change being made in 1952 when a new Burman gearbox was adopted. In 1951, the rear suspension was upgraded to the Jampot unit, derided for its shape in the 28th of September issue of Motor Cycle Magazine. In the same year minor changes included a new Lucas horn-push on the handlebar and a medallion badge in place of the previously used transfer. Front fork shuttle dampening was also replaced with rod and damper-type. Progressively developed, the Model 20's twin-cylinder engine underwent a number of capacity increases, finally being discounted when the 646cc AJS Model 31 replaced it in the Autumn of 1958. This matching numbers example, made in the first year of the Jampot suspension, was purchased by our vendor some fifteen years or so ago as a restoration project for his retirement. Little is known of its early history but in the 1960's it was owned by a R.W Gosling of Scunthorpe, then in 1962 a Geoffrey Pearson of Scunthorpe and in 1971 a Michael Rough of Gainsborough in Lincolnshire. Restored a few years ago the the same high standards as the 1960 BSA Gold Star sold by these rooms in our July 2017 auction it is in very good condition; it has now covered only 42 miles and further running in is advised. other projects mean this is now surplus to requirements. Sold with the R.F.60 continuation book, V5 and V5C .

1957 Norton Dominator 88, 497 cc, Registration number VFF 808 (non- transferable), Frame number M122 74832, Engine number 122 75841. Norton had responded to the success of the Triumph Speed Twin model of 1949 with the release of the Bert Hopwood designed Model 7 twin displacing 500cc; the new engine went into the existing ES2 plunger-frame/tele-fork cycle parts, a marriage that necessitated a redesign of Norton's well-proven four-speed gearbox. Launched at the 1951 Earls Court Show, the Model 88 was the first of nine Norton road machines to be equipped with the "Wideline Featherbed" frame (designed for Norton by the McCandless brothers and made by the Reynolds company because the Norton works did not have the necessary welding capacity for its manufacture) and very rapidly became a best seller, eclipsing the older framed Model 7 with which it shared the same engine unit. The new frame had a bolt-on rear section with a loop running around the back to carry the mudguard but from 1954 onwards, this was welded into place. An 8" front brake also arrived in 1954, and for the following year, an alloy cylinder head, Amal Monobloc carburetors and full width wheel hubs. The Norton/Burman gearbox was replaced by the AMC box for the 1957 range and there was also a new camshaft. The cylinder head was modified for better heat dissipation, and the pear drop silencers gave way to a tubular design. Coil ignition with an alternator superseded the magneto and dynamo in 1958. There were then only cosmetic changes to the silencers and petrol tank until the "Slimline Featherbed" frame came in for 1960. This 1957 example (the V5C says 1958) has had little use over the last few years as the vendor was working and living in the USA, he has now returned but it is now surplus to requirements. He purchased it in 2001 from a Trevor Corner of York who only six months earlier had bought it from a long term owner in Dumfrieshire. In a letter on file he states that he bought the 88 in 1975 when it was in race trim; he undertook parades at Cadwell Park, Flookburgh and Knock Hill before in the early 1990's he restored it to factory spec. This was completed by October 1994, the date it was re registered with DVLA. The rebuild included an engine rebuild with a crankshaft regrind, new pistons and cam followers, a new wiring loom as well as a suspension and brake overhaul together with a respray. Due to its lack of activity, gentle recommissioning will be required, sold with the V5C, a V5, tax discs from 1995, 97, 98, 99, 2000, 02, 03 and 15, an MOT from 2001 when the mileage was 2,219, now it is 2,276.

1951 Norton 500T, 490 cc. Registration number UXS 403 (non-transferable). frame number F3T 40267. Engine number 40267 F3T. Norton introduced a new trials machine in 1949 designated the 500T. It employed a modified 16H frame with reduced rear stays and a set of special fork yokes that brought the forks back to the steering column, a sump guard was fitted under the crankcases and Roadholder telescopic forks were fitted with a 7" brake and scalloped hub. The gearbox was the pre war type, used due to the limited space available behind the all alloy Wellworthy engine that made use of the ES2 cams and flywheels and a soft 6:1 compression ratio. A great deal of attention was applied to keeping the overall weight low with a lightweight silencer, alloy rear engine plates and mudguards. The model quickly gained a loyal following and continued in production until September 1954 when it was deleted from the model range. Few changes were made to the specification over the production run, apart from a normal front hub replaced the scalloped one in 1951. Little is known of the early life of this machine, although the Norton Owners Club confirm that it is matching numbers and was built on the 28th August 1951 and dispatched to T. Simister of Macclesfield. Owned by our vendor for several years who has enjoyed many outings including the Beamish Run. Sold with the V5C and the Norton dating certificate.

1987 Honda VFR750R RC30, 750 cc. Registration number E513 LBT. Frame number RC 1000182. Engine number RC 07E 1032255. Serial number 88013. One of the modern era's few immediately collectible classics, the Honda VFR750R - better known as the "RC30" - was created for just one reason; to win the World Superbike Championship, a feat it acheived in the nascent series' first two seasons of 1988 and 1989. While American Fred Merkel was bringing Honda its first two WSB crowns, Britain's Carl Fogerty used an RC30 to win the TT F1 World Championship in 1988 and 1989 and the equivalent FIM Cup in 1990. No mere short circuit racer, the RC30 and its derivatives proved durable enough to win a hat-full of Endurance Classics too. That this latter requirement was also part of the design brief may be determined from the fact that a quick release front fork and single sided swinging arm - essential for speedy wheel changes - were part of an unrivalled specification that included a twin spar alloy beam, 16 valve V4 engine with gear driven cams, close ratio 6 speed gearbox and four pot brake calipers. The RC 30 was also the first production bike in the world to feature titanium alloy, which was used to make the con rods and no expense was spared on the rest of the machine either. Every component was the lightest and most expensive possible for a road bike and the result was a motorcycle which weighed a paltry 185 kilos. Six years later the legendary Ducati 916 would still be heavier. Each RC30 was hand assembled one at a time in the firm's Hamamatsu plant where the factory race bikes were built meaning that customers were virtually getting their own works bikes built for them. All of which did not come cheap; at the time of its launch to the public in 1988 an RC30 cost near double that of other super sports 750's. Despite the passage of time and the progress of motorcycle technology, the Rc30 remains a match for the latest generation of sports bikes but possesses an exclusivity that none of them can approach, "No other bike from the late 80's is lusted after like an RC30" reckoned Bike magazine. Only 3000 of these machines were built. 88013 would appear to be a very early Japanese market example; production started at RC30-1000001 and this is RC30-1000182. It was imported into the UK by the Eddy Wright dealership of Leeds and at the time it was painted in Honda race colours with gold wheels. After eighteen months of being in his shop it was repainted in the correct colour scheme and fitted with UK dials (zeroed with no note of the original mileage) and R. Haslin bought it. He rode it back from Leeds but it was down on power so he took it to Dean Ashton's shop (Ashton Performance Centre) in Hornsea where it was fettled. He also fitted a VFR front wheel which gave a better tyre profile and set about improving it over the next 3,600 miles of use. In May 2009 it changed hands and our vendor bought it on the 7th December 2013. The mileage is now 4,395. Sold with the V5C, a letter from R. Haslin and the UK history file.
