Registration No: HX10 BKK Frame No: 5HD4CS2C4AC423943 MOT: None883R Sportster in Harley's famous race coloursChrome carrier with backrest and spotlightsHagon shocks and fork kit, supplied with a V5CHarley-Davidson was established in Milwaukee in 1903 and has gone on to become one of the world's best-known and longest-running motorcycle manufacturers. Harley-Davidson is the archetype for large-capacity cruisers which many have tried to copy but never quite equalled Harley's image and prestige. The Sportster in its various guises has been in the Harley catalogue since the 1950s and has often been a motorcyclist's first introduction to the mystique of owning and riding one of these iconic bikes. Powered by the classic air-cooled V-twin engine in a nice simple frame, its low seat height and relative light weight make it an ideal all rounder. This 2010 Sportster 883R is a good-looking bike presented in Harley's classic Orange and Black race team colours. Displaying a credible c.12,575 miles on its speedo, unusually for a Sportster it is offered in essentially standard trim with just the rear shocks having been upgraded to a pair of Hagons and a Hagon front-fork kit fitted to improve the ride. The bike is also fitted with a chrome rear carrier, a backrest and a pair of spot lights up front. A new drive belt was fitted in June 2023 and it is protected with a Carole Nash Insurance 'DNA Protection' kit and will come supplied with a current V5C.

Registration No: M658 XER Frame No: SMTTC354CRP010608 MOT: June 2025Presented in standard and original trimTriumph's 150bhp Sports TourerSupplied with an MOT and a current V5CTriumph is the largest surviving British motorcycle manufacturer, but it hasn’t been an easy path for the manufacturer. The British bike industry began to collapse in the 1970s and by the early 1980s Triumph sank into receivership. British businessman John Bloor bought the name and manufacturing rights with his “new” Triumph company restarting production in the early 1990s. They are now re-established as one of the world’s most desirable and best-selling brands. Reviving one of the classic names from the 1960s, the four cylinder Daytona 1200 was launched in 1993 as a comfy sports tourer but still putting out around 150bhp with 85ft lbs of torque at 8000rpm. This Daytona 1200 in the rare Light Blue colour scheme has been part of a private collection for the last few years. In May last year it was given an extensive professional recommissioning including a fuel tank clean and re-seal, new fuel tap, a carb overhaul including new diaphragms, a brake overhaul with new pads, coolant and all fluids replaced, new fork seals and oil, new battery, tyres, air filter and a full general service. Dry stored since but started and run regularly by the vendor, it comes supplied with a current V5C. Early Hinckley Triumphs are now becoming quite collectable, whilst still being good and affordable bikes for pleasure use.

Registration No: NMC 32R Frame No: 45792 MOT: ExemptRare prototype Harris TriumphMagazine featured and owned for 36 yearsRestored to a high standardThis very special machine was purchased some time ago by the current owner. Dismantled for around 8 years before that, the overhaul started in earnest with the engine and included new bearings, pistons, new conrods etc; Phil Pick from Triple Cycles overhauled the gearbox. To aid the restoration, the current vendor visited Harris Performance with some pictures. The vendor was informed that Lester Harris told him it was 'one of three prototypes for track testing and racing whilst the other two did not survive due to crashing'. Said to have been raced previously by Jim Wells, in F750 and Endurance, the Harris was taken back to Lester to have a look at and at that time some work was carried out by him, which included a fork brace, battery box, chain guard, a one-off exhaust system, and a White Power suspension spring. All the wheels were overhauled at the time, with new bearings and tyres and tubes. The amount of work that has been carried out has been listed by the current vendor. It was subsequently featured in the July 1989 'Performance' magazine once completed. We have been advised the Harris Prototype is 'running very well' and should be a delight for its new owner. It is offered with a current V5C and various paperwork. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
Registration No: CE65 DXZ Frame No: ZDMG103AAFB026091 MOT: NoneDisplayed mileage of some 20,155 milesService book stamped at 16,978 milesFork seals, chain sprockets and timing belts done at 16,978 milesOffered as a projectDucati’s announcement that a cruiser was being added to its lineup caused considerable puzzlement. Why on earth did it want to lock horns with Harley Davidson? Launched in 2011, the resultant Diavelo (Bolognese dialect for devil) soon silenced the doubters with its sportsbike-derived (and WSB-winning) engine, sophisticated suspension, agile chassis, cutting-edge electronics and radical styling. Toting a huge 240-section rear tyre, the Ducati was crowned MCN’s ‘Machine of the Year’ for 2011. Arriving in 2015, the second generation Diavelo boasted a subtly modified twin-spark Testastretta motor and could be had in various ‘special edition’ guises such as the AMG Edition, Chromo, Titanium and Diesel. Inspiring something of a cult following, the outlandish high-performance cruiser remains in production today and even has its own internet forum.Accompanied by a service book which was last stamped at 16,978 miles when ‘CE65 DXZ’ received replacement fork seals, chain sprockets and timing belts, this second generation example now shows 20,155 miles to its odometer. Offered for sale as a non-running project, the Ducati is nevertheless said to have ‘good compression’ and to be capable of starting with the assistance of a rolling road. The 'red key' is present, however, it can also be started keyless with a code. A V5C is on file. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
Registration No: SD23 XMK Frame No: SMTDAD70GDPB3751 MOT: Not ApplicableOne previous owner from newVery low mileage of just c.3,575Two sets of keys suppliedIn 'almost as new' conditionThe range-topping Bonneville derivative of recent times, the T100 has a self-consciously retro look with spoked wire wheels, fork gaiters, a two-tone tank scheme, twin 'peashooter' exhausts, chromed engine covers and a Triumph logo on the seat. For 2017, a host of updates were introduced, including a displacement increase to 900cc, the addition of liquid-cooling and traction control, and the change from a 360-degree to 270-degree crankshaft. The combination of ‘old school’ looks and modern road manners appeals to many. This 2023 Triumph T100 Bonneville has had just one previous keeper and covered a mere 3,575 miles from new. Starting ‘on the button’ for our recent photography session, the Triumph is said to ride in a manner commensurate with its notably low odometer reading. Fitted with extra luggage panniers, ‘SD23 XMK’ is only being sold due to the vendor’s passing. The T100’s book pack has been mislaid but it is accompanied by a current V5C Registration Document and two keys etc. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
Registration No: MRE 3B Frame No: PJ 175 MOT: ExemptGood provenance No reserveFrom a deceased estateUnderstood to be in excellent condition with V5CDawson’s Motors Wolverhampton commenced production of a range of Villiers-powered lightweights in 1950 in Sedgely. The firm built its first competition models in 1952 and introduced a scrambler a couple of years later. A scooter, the 98cc Bambi, had been added to the range by 1960, but DMW’s next offering in this category would be more unusual. First seen in 1961, the Deemster was intended to combine the riding position and handling characteristics of a conventional motorcycle with scooter-type weather protection and enclosure. The Deemster’s twin-cylinder Villiers 250cc 2T engine was located centrally, in the motorcycle position, while the interchangeable wheels were 12” in diameter. Suspension was by leading-link fork at the front, with rubber ‘spring’ and single hydraulic damper, and by swinging arm at the rear. The frame was made up from a combination of round and square-section tubing to which a large box fabricated box was attached, supporting the seat and rear dampers while providing sufficient luggage space to accommodate two crash helmets. With its tall screen, twin headlamps, generously sized leg shields and voluminous front mudguard, the Deemster was certainly eye-catching. Only 350 were produced and a police version proved the bulk of these sales with around 250 sold to police fleets.This scooter’s known history from new starts when Staffordshire Police purchased eight of these machines registered MRE 1B through to MRE 8B. First registration is stated as 1st August 1964, as confirmed by the accompanying old style blue log book The original rider assigned was Constable Frederick Fox and we have learned that Fred was so attached to the machine that when it was retired from service he bought it. He later donated it to the Staffordshire Police museum which, in 2002, released it onto the market when it was purchased by our vendor though he never used it. The scooter is complete and appears to be in exceptionally good original condition having been stored with a coating of grease which has even preserved all rubbers. No attempt was made to start it upon inspection but we observed that the engine turns freely. Offered with current V5C, original tools, users handbooks and a workshop manual for the Villers engine.

The first of these models launched in 1945 was the T35 featuring a pivoted fork rear frame, sprung with torsion bars and leading link "Radiadraulic" front forks with compression springs and hydraulic damping. The company also built a range of cars between 1913 and 1922 and famously built Vespa scooters under license in the 1950s. The start of the 1950s saw the Mk5 variant.This 1950s Douglas was purchased by the late vendor to form part of a collection of motorcycles he was gathering together at the time. It was purchased in a restored condition and it is not known when this was actually carried out. Since it has been in his ownership, it has been used around the yard from time to time, but not for several years now. Sadly, no paperwork has been found and it is now being offered needing some general recommissioning and an age-related number applying for via the DVLA and The Douglas Owner's Club.

The first of these models launched in 1945 was the T35 featuring a pivoted fork rear frame, sprung with torsion bars and leading link "Radiadraulic" front forks with compression springs and hydraulic damping. The company also built a range of cars between 1913 and 1922 and famously built Vespa scooters under license in the 1950s. The start of the 1950s saw the Mk5 variant, with the Competition and high-performance 80 Plus and 90 Plus versions. This authentically restored Douglas, being offered with 'no reserve', is the 80 Plus model introduced in 1950 together with the 90 Plus as high-performance road models. The 80 Plus and 90 Plus referred to their claimed top speeds and both had specially tuned engines which were bench tested at the factory for power output and torque. The Maroon and Silver paintwork was unique to the 80 Plus. Whilst most of their competitors were producing vertical twins with conventional suspension, Douglas stood out from the crowd with a boxer-style flat-twin, torsion bar rear suspension and leading-link front forks. This nicely presented example has recently been treated to new plugs and a battery and comes supplied with a current V5C.

Big specV5 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 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.We were able to trace the recent technical history of this scooter. Built by Jay Marriott in the mid to late '60s Mod customisation style in 2012, the engine is a Rapido 225 on a SIL 200 engine with an Amal Mk1 carburettor with a Royspeed manifold. It's 12v ignition but wired into the regulator and then into an original rectifier cover. The piston is an Avanti with barrel tuned by Harry Barlow with a Mark Broadhurst cylinder head and an AF crank. It has an original TV1 BECME ignition switch still with its half-moon spring cover, a 48mm clubman exhaust, Scootopia Ulma rear carrier and an original front mudguard, a chopper-style Sidewinder seat, polished headset and rear light housing. The fog lights appear to be wired-in and airhorns are present. For more information, please contact: Paul Diamond info@vintagescooters.co.uk 07768 313001
Registration No: 975 EAE Frame No: VS2T 23023 MOT: ExemptFully restored with high specification quality upgradesRare scooter with V5CEngine No: VS2M 17805Exceptional attention to detailCommissioned by Vespa expert James McCabe to be his superior riderThe GS (Gran Sport) was the culmination of all of the speed racers and trial versions of Vespa that had gone before including the famous ‘Sei Giorni’ factory racers. It was the first mass produced sport Vespa to enter the market. The main VS1 production started at the beginning of 1955 and the ‘Vespone’ or big wasp was a tremendous overall success. A great many of the features experimented on the Sei Giorni racers transitioned to the GS. Larger 10 inch ‘star’ wheels, 4 gears in a 150cc 8 HP engine and a new body design with the machine presented in silver. The VS2 followed in 1956 with very few technical changes save the hidden cables and white speedometer. The leg shield was protected with a chrome trim. The GS (Gran Sport) was the culmination of all of the speed racers and trial versions of Vespa that had gone before. This VS2 has been treated to a sumptuous combination of original appearance with bold ‘no expense spared’ upgrades to create an astonishing riding machine. The paint was entrusted to leading experts The London Body Shop to an exacting colour spec and the paint is still in superb condition. The engine No: VS2M 17805 was subject to a thorough overall by Retrospective Scooters with AF Rayspeed top end and an upgraded crank. The carburettor is the original with balanced up-jetted fuel inflow. The suspension is an adjustable SIP shock and the exhaust is also a SIP road version. The fuel tank is a high capacity VS1 version accessory. The electronics are uprated to 12v variatronic ignition spec. The speedometer was sent off to global speedometer specialist Speed King in the US to be refurbished and returned as MPH. On close inspection the attention to detail is highly impressive from the floor running end caps to the cabling. The scooter is finished off with a number of choice original accessories including original Ulma wheel discs, original Cavalli GS150 rack and fork cover. The V5C is present.

BMW responded with the introduction of a revised range of machines in 1970. Typed the /5 series and offered in 500, 600 and 750cc capacities, they marked a considerable change in approach for the Bavarian concern. The Earles type front forks that had characterised the earlier models were replaced by telescopic items and a new pivoted fork frame was employed. The engines were completely redesigned with journal-type bearings replacing the roller and ball units fitted in the bottom end.Appearing to be very original and unmolested and complete with spare keys, 'KVT' is reported to be in running order, although the vendor advises the usual check over prior to use. Complete with a V5C that records 4 previous keepers and bearing a Stoke on Trent 'VT' registration, 'KVT' is reputed to have been in single-family ownership from new, unfortunately, there is no supportive paperwork with the machine. An excellent opportunity to acquire a 'drum-brake boxer BMW' with a very realistic estimate. For more information, please contact: Stewart Parker info@handh.co.uk 07836 346875
Registration No: N/A Frame No: MK 09118 MOT: N/AIconic 1970s two-stroke 450cc MotocrosserCustomer version of the championship winning bikeModel made famous in the classic film 'On Any Sunday' (1971)Husqvarna was founded near the town Huskvarna, Sweden, in 1689 with the company starting out as a manufacturer of muskets and their logo still depicts a gun sight viewed from the end of the barrel. As with many motorcycle manufacturers, Husqvarna first began producing bicycles in the late 19th century but by 1903 they had begun manufacturing powered two-wheelers. By the 1970s they were mainly known for their off-road bikes, popular in Motocross and Enduro events. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, Husqvarna was a dominant force in the motocross world, winning 14 motocross world championships in the 125cc, 250cc and 500cc divisions, 24 Enduro world championships and 11 Baja 1000 victories. Probably their best known model is the CR450 of the early 1970s, a firebreathing two-stroke ridden to world championship glory by Bengt Aberg and Heikki Mikkola and famously by Steve McQueen in 'On Any Sunday' (1971). This authentically presented CR450 spent most of its early life in the US before being imported into the UK by a previous owner. Bought by the vendor a few years ago, in 2021 it was treated to a good service that included fork seals, new tyres, the frame was resprayed and new plastics fitted. Last ridden in 2022 at the Malle Mile race weekend, it will need some recommissioning before being used in anger again. An excellent example of a much sought-after model that will put a smile on the face of any rider. https://youtube.com/shorts/QwuKcycHXOI?feature=sharedhttps://youtube.com/shorts/X6WQgIEpYVo For more information, please contact: Ian Cunningham ian.cunningham@handh.co.uk 07415871189
Registration No: T41 TEU Frame No: MRD97013RC MOT: March 2026One family ownership from newA very rare Harley Metisse by Pat FrenchOver 20 years in the making of this unique machineIt comes with a current V5CBuilt by Pat French and Mark Jannink of MRD Metisse in Bristol, 'T41 TEU' was registered as a Metisse with a year-related registration number in 1999. Based around the MRD nickel-plated chrome moly oil-bearing frame and swingarm, this example has benefited from the very best components in the build. The 1198cc Sportster Evo engine was converted to chain drive with mild tuning for reliability. Spondon engineering provided the 54mm White Power Roma fork legs along with the adjustable yokes. Spondon also provided the 4 pot front brake callipers and brackets and the 320mm brake discs. The wheels are Dymag Classic H Section with cush drive. There's a WP 5140 Steering damper, carbon fibre tail unit and side panels, engine sprocket cover and chain guide, alloy Pearson petrol tank, Ohlins adjustable rear shock absorbers, headlamps from a Triumph T509, an upholstered leather hide seat, a custom-built exhaust system (very quiet) and an Elliot tachometer and RGV 250 speedometer paired-up perfectly in their custom housing. Paintwork was done by Andy at Ultimate Bike Paint. Owned in the same family since new, the bike handles very well with quick but stable handling. It draws a crowd wherever it is parked! The Metisse Harley has now been serviced with a new MOT ready for the auction. The missing side panel will be fitted before it is delivered to the auction.

Registration No: 796 UXG Frame No: 633922 MOT: ExemptGenuine original matching numbers machineSupplied with current V5C, BMW Factory Authentication Certificate, original keys & tool kitCurrent owner for last 14 years, large history fillThe Model R50 is a motorcycle produced by BMW in the second half of the 1950s with a 2-cylinder four-stroke OHV boxer engine. It is the basic model of a series of largely identical touring and sports motorcycles with different powerful engines, which the article with the technical data represents as a whole. The predecessor of the R50 was the BMW R 51/3 model with a rated output of 18kW, with telescopic fork and straight path suspension. The R50 built from 1955 onwards differed from it by the full swingarm chassis with pushed long swingarm and rear swingarm as well as encapsulated suspension and the slightly increased engine power. This 1962 R50, was originally exported to South Africa, and was then imported to the UK in 1990. In 2004, the registration number was changed for an age-related plate. Since 2004, the bike has had just two owners and has been in current ownership since 2011. The bike has had limited use over the past 10 years (2,000km), and was last ridden in summer 2024. It has been regularly serviced, with parts supplied by Bob Porecha (BMW Specialist), who refurbished the brakes and final drive in 2015. The bike is presently fitted with a single Denfeld seat & rack, but also comes with its original twin seat. The large history file fully documents the stages of the bike’s history, including BMW Classic Factory Authentication Certificate, the bills of sale, a large number of MOT certificates, parts invoices and receipts. Also included are service and parts manuals, plus a copy of the owner’s manual. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
Registration No: GRW 69G Frame No: 665881 MOT: ExemptUS import - rare to find in the UKRestored and magazine featuredFully UK registered by a BMW expertRunning very wellOffered complete with a current V5CBMW introduced the range-leading R69 in 1955 to universal praise. The new machine was able to approach the best of the British twins in terms of outright performance with the 594cc horizontally opposed overhead valve engine delivering 35 bhp at 6,800rpm, sufficient to propel the machine to 102 mph, but more importantly, was able to sustain its pace almost indefinitely. Earles forks and a new pivoted fork frame ensured that the rider remained comfortable and was able to exploit the performance offered by the new mount to the full, quickly establishing it as a favourite with long distance riders. 1960 witnessed the release of an improved version typed the R69S which developed more BHP (42 at 7,000rpm) without compromising the machine's outstanding reliability. The USA market iteration was typed as the R69US. Cycle World concluded their June 1962 road test of the BMW R69S in the following manner: "Whatever the BMW's merits in a contest of speed, it is still the smoothest, best finished, quietest and cleanest motorcycle it has ever been our pleasure to ride. To be honest, we think that anyone who would worry much over its performance-potential is a bit of a booby. The R69S is fast enough to handle any encounter, and it has attributes that are, in touring, infinitely more valuable than mere speed. All things considered, if we were planning a two-wheel style vacation/tour, the BMW would have to be our choice of mount." This example is believed to have been imported into the UK from America in the 1980s, lying unused and stored until 2000/2001 before being repainted from Dover White to Chamonix White. Renovation work was completed and it was UK registered. Mistakenly declared manufactured in 1968 on an ‘F’, unfortunately, the paperwork was lost at this time. However, the father of the current owner managed to gain confirmation from the BMW archives in Munich that it was built in late 1969, so it now wears the correct ‘G’ registration. Over the years the bike appears to have had little use, records indicating between 2009 and 2021 just 205 miles were covered. In 2019, it made a short outing to an MOT station resulting in a pass. The seller is unable to guarantee the '7,699' displayed miles as the total mileage covered and due to the history of long periods of standing, together with only occasional use, the seller advises recommissioning work is required. A wonderfully worthwhile project for someone who would relish rejuvenating it with the potential to make it truly exceptional, it remains a highly desirable and enjoyable machine.

Registration No: VOF 378 Frame No: 010948 MOT: ExemptA very striking 1957 Triumph T110Always cared for and maintained by the current ownerRuns very well and starts easyOffered with V5C and old style logbookThe Triumph Tiger 110 is a British sports motorcycle that Triumph first made at their Coventry factory between 1953 and 1961. The T110 was developed from the Triumph Thunderbird and first appeared in 1954. Although it was supposed to be the sports model of the Triumph range, the Tiger 110 was later fitted with the rear panelling that was introduced with Triumph's 350cc 3TA twin in 1959. This Triumph T110 had only done 1,281 miles since 1982 when the vendor purchased it in 2019. Unfortunately, there is no history before 1982, except for the old buff logbook. The T110 has since been restored using quality British Triumph parts, including a top-end engine overhaul with 8.1 pistons instead of 9.1 due to the head being skimmed. The bottom end was in excellent condition and received an uprated oil pump. The oil pump was uprated and the magneto was refurbished along with a new carburettor. The restoration also included new fork stanchions and the front brake was rebuilt by Dick Hunt Racing. Attention was also paid to the clutch, front sprocket, chain, rear drum and bearings and shod with fresh tyres and a new font wheel with stainless spokes. It also benefitted from a new wiring harness and switches, cables, brake and clutch levers. Fresh Triumph Silver Grey and Black was applied, including transfers along with some re-chroming. The seat foam and cover were also renewed. The Triumph runs very well and is ready for its new owner for another summer. It is an excellent example of the model and comes complete with a V5C, sundry spares and some invoices for parts and work carried out.

Registration No: 3 KPT Frame No: R14 92225 MOT: ExemptThe Dominator 99 600cc Sport Special (99SS) was only made for a couple of years, with twin carbs and increased performance over the standard model. It is one of the rarest twins, the frame being the 1960 slimline version of the legendary featherbed. This machine was sold new by Robsons of Bishop Auckland and registered as '3 KPT' on 23rd September 1960 (despatched 22nd August 1960). The matching frame, engine, gearbox and fork numbers are confirmed as correct by the Norton Owner's Club factory record. Originally Red, the frame is now Black. The current owner bought it in the early ‘70s before being built-up as a café racer by Roger Myers of RGM Norton in Cumbria. It seems to have done very few miles since, although it has been maintained and used occasionally. The original monobloc carbs have been replaced by a single concentric and it also possesses some Dunstall and Tickle parts. Other more recent changes include Hagon rear dampers and the addition of Lucas Rita ignition with Bosch coils. In the last few years it has had new liners and pistons with a slightly lower compression ratio to aid starting and for ethanol fuels. At the same time, the cylinder head had new valve seats fitted to suit lead-free fuel. Recently, the carb and tank were cleaned, the oil changed and it started first kick, running smoothly and idling well. It has a current V5 included in the sale, along with some accompanying spares, the NOC factory record and the original magneto. It could be returned to original specification relatively easily, if required. For more information, please contact: Mike Davis mike.davis@handh.co.uk 07718 584217
Registration No: Unregistered Frame No: 61077 MOT: ExemptEntered from a private collection of British motorcycles where it has resided for twenty-five yearsThe subject of an older restoration and now in need of recommissioningA rare 'Birmigham Scott' and badged as a 'Holder Special'Recommencing production in 1946, the Scott Flying Squirrel was little changed from its pre-WW2 guise. Thus, its twin-cylinder, liquid-cooled, two-stroke engine drove a three-speed gearbox via a central primary chain and was housed in a rigid duplex frame equipped with Webb girder forks. The latter were soon exchanged for Dowty air-sprung telescopic items but the model had become decidedly ‘old hat’ by the late 1940s. However, Scott had such a loyal following that even the closure of its Saltair factory at the end of 1950 did not signal an end. Instead, long-term marque enthusiast Matt Holder acquired the remaining stock via his Aerco Jig and Tool Company and relocated production to Birmingham. Available for the next decade or so, the ‘Birmingham Scotts’ evolved to feature pivoted fork frames but remained true to the marque’s distinctive powerplant. Reportedly restored prior to being acquired by the late vendor for his collection some twenty-five years ago, this ‘Birmingham Scott’ Flying Squirrel is now in need of recommissioning following a period of disuse. Offered for sale without reserve or paperwork, the Scott Owners’ Club should hopefully be able to assist with getting it DVLA registered again should a new owner wish to return the ‘Holder Special’ to the King’s Highway.

Registration No: JGK 337T Frame No: 522988 MOT: 11-03-26Genuine UK supplied from new 'S' modelPeriod extras including a box section S/AMotad 4-into-1, supplied with a current V5CThe 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 WWII, 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. Better known for their two-stroke Suzuki entered the four stroke market in 1977 with the GS750, a bike that matched European standards of handling but with Japanese build quality and performance levels. A year later the full 1000cc version was launched, setting a new benchmark in the superbike division. In 1979 the 'S' version arrived sporting a nose cone fairing, 18" rear wheel and race inspired paintwork going on to dominate AMA superbike racing in the USA with riders such as Wes Cooley and Graeme Crosby. This UK-supplied GS1000SN, was bought by the vendor in 1991 and used by him on rallies and attending the TT until being dry stored in 2005. Brought out of hibernation this year, he has given the bike a good recommissioning and is now ready to be enjoyed by a new owner. A typical example of how owners in the '70s and '80s used to customise and modify their bikes, it is fitted with a Motad 4-into-1 exhaust, alloy front fork brace, box section swinging arm, rear set footrest, Hagon rear shocks and K+N style air filters. Now finished in British Racing Green it was originally Blue and White and comes supplied with a number of old MOTs, tax discs and a current V5C.

A RARE GEORGE III MAHOGANY HODOMETER OR WAYWISERDOLLOND, LONDON, CIRCA 1800With 31.5 inch diameter wheel bound with an iron tyre and with six tapered spokes around a brass hub engaging with take-off gearing contained within the left hand fork of the handle assembly, the right hand fork incorporating a hinged section to allow removal of the wheel with locking via a knurled brass screw, the upper section with inverted 7.25 inch circular silvered register engraved Dollond, London to centre within concentric inner scale calibrated in Roman numeral Miles (I to X) and Arabic Furlongs (0 to 8 for each mile) to be read by the shorter of the two blued steel hands within outer scales calibrated in Poles (0 to 40) and Yards (0 to 220) to be read by the longer hand, set behind a hinged glazed circular moulded wooden bezel beneath elaborate yoke-shaped handle.137cm (54ins) high overall, 30.5cm (12ins) wide at the handle. Provenance:Private Collection. Peter Dollond is recorded in Banfield, Edwin BAROMETER MAKERS AND RETAILERS 1680-1860 as born 1730 and died 1820. He was the son of John Dollond, a Huguenot silk weaver and started business as an optician in 1750. He was joined by his father in 1752 until his death in 1761, and then by his brother, John, until his death in 1804. The family business was continued by Peter Dollond's nephew, George Huggins, who changed his surname to Dollond. George Dollond became instrument maker to William IV and Queen Victoria, exhibited at the Great Exhibition in 1851 and died 1856. The firm became one of the largest makers and suppliers of scientific and optical instruments and continued trading under various guises throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. The current lot would have been a particularly valuable instrument for surveyors charged with creating maps and plans during the latter years of the 18th century. The importance of the instrument's role is reflected in the quality of its construction with the dial in particular being finely engraved and finished. When reviewing comparable surviving instruments of this type it becomes clear that different makers such as Dollond, Thomas Rubergall, William Frazer, and W. and S. Jones appear to have sold essentially identical instruments. This would suggest that they were probably made in one workshop who then supplied them to various makers for retail. One possible candidate for the supplier would be the workshop established by George Adams, as several earlier variants of this design by him are known including an example in the King George III collection housed at The Science Museum, London. This suggests that Adams was used to making such instruments hence was best suited to supply them in reasonable numbers to other makers.
