1981 Suzuki X5 200Registration no. UAD 678XFrame no. GT200-508567Engine no. GT200-109008By the late 1970s, Suzuki's long-running GT250 and GT185 were beginning to look rather long in the tooth, and in 1979 both were replaced with new models: the 250cc X7 and 200cc X5 respectively. The newcomers featured up-to-the-minute styling and were lighter and faster than their predecessors, and both featured reed-valve induction and cast alloy wheels. This X5 was acquired by the current vendor in October 1985 and is described by him as an 'ideal runabout'. The Suzuki displays a total of 29,019 miles on the odometer and is offered for re-commissioning following a period of inactivity (the engine does not turn over). Sold strictly as viewed, the machine comes with a V5C registration document and one key.Footnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to biddingLot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Property of a deceased's estate 1991 Suzuki GSX-R 1100MRegistration no. H93 JBHFrame no. GV73B106890NEngine no. V711-106907Suzuki rewrote the 750-class rulebook when it launched the GSX-R 750 on an unsuspecting world back in 1985. Lighter than a 600 and as powerful as a 1,000, it made all other super-sports 750s seem flabby and slow. When the 1,100cc version arrived for 1986 it similarly eclipsed every other big-bore sports bike. 'The acceleration is awesome – like being charged in the back by a rugby scrum,' enthused Bike magazine's tester.This lovely GSX-R has had only one owner from new and is in wonderfully original condition, the only blemish being 'topple-over' damage to the fairing. Purchased from Neil Young Motorcycles of Northampton (invoice on file), the machine has covered only some 10,000 miles from new and comes with an almost complete run of MoTs (1995-2017). Additional paperwork consists of sundry bills and a V5C.Offered with keyFootnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Property of the late Alan Windsor Seeley 496cc G50 MkII Replica Racing MotorcycleFrame no. R.M.T. MK.2-102REngine no. A.W. G50 102•Roger Titchmarsh frame•Mick Taberer engine•Campaigned in IHRO events•Paraded by Colin Seeley, Leon Haslam and Dave CroxfordMany-times British sidecar champion Colin Seeley bought Associated Motor Cycles' racing department when the company went into receivership in 1966. Seeley's motorcycle dealership possessed an AMC agency and he was already well familiar with the Plumstead firm's race engines, having commenced his sidecar racing career with a G50-powered outfit. Believing that the engines possessed further potential if equipped with state-of-the-art cycle parts, the previous year he had constructed the first Seeley racing frame to house a Matchless G50 engine, and the AMC purchase enabled him to produce complete Seeley G50 and 7R machines. With their improved frames, the four-stroke singles enjoyed renewed competitiveness, Derek Minter winning first time out at the start of the 1966 season on both the 350cc 7R and 500cc G50-engined Seeleys. The Seeley frame progressed from the duplex cradle MkI to the similar but lighter MkII on which works rider Dave Croxford won the British 500 Championship in 1968. The down-tubes were abandoned with the MkIII, the headstock and swinging arm pivot of which were linked solely by tubes running diagonally above the engine. Supported by sponsor Gus Kuhn, Seeley-mounted Croxford triumphed again in the British 500 Championship in 1969. The Seeley MkIV introduced towards the end of 1970 featured a revised tubing layout and continued in production until 1973, achieving further successes. Production of Seeley frames was later licensed to Roger Titchmarsh and there have been countless unauthorised copies made over the years. This Seeley G50 replica was built for Alan by Roger Titchmarsh in 1998 (bill on file). The Mick Taberer engine incorporates a Newby crankshaft, titanium con-rod, Omega forged piston, coil valve springs, and a Nikasil-plated aluminium cylinder liner. Other notable features of this well developed machine include a Gardner carburettor, Maxton front fork, Maxton rear dampers, a Hemmings five-speed gearbox, and total-loss ignition. Alan raced the Seeley in IHRO events and it has been paraded by his friend, the late Colin Seeley, Leon Haslam and Dave Croxford. Showing that he had lost none of his speed, Croxford returned the Seeley to the paddock with its fairing scuffed on both sides! Re-commissioning to a greater or lesser extent will be required before the Seeley returns to the racetrack. The machine is offered with a selection of colour action photographs and some bills. It should be noted that Alan has owned more than one G50-engined motorcycle over the years and it cannot be determined whether or not all these bills belong with this particular example (some appear to relate to another Seeley G50 built for Geoff Sawyer).

1958 Velocette 499cc MSS Mark 2 ScramblerFrame no. 1001/35Engine no. MSS 12582SMuch development of Velocette's single-cylinder roadster engine was carried out as part of the scrambles programme, Hall Green having gone 'off road' after withdrawing its road-racing overhead-camshaft models in 1952. Released in 1954, the first production scramblers were handicapped by excess weight and wayward handling, and although these problems were eventually sorted out and the engine developed into one of the best, the small Velocette factory lacked the resources to compete on level terms with the likes of BSA and AMC, and production petered out in the mid 1960s. In 1958 significant changes had been made to the Mark 2 models, which benefited from a die-cast cylinder head and a return to the more reliable cast-iron cylinder barrel, while the heavy roadster-type rear sub-frame was replaced with a much lighter arrangement. The stock of original MAC-type fuel tanks having been used up, a switch was made to the tank from the Valiant flat twin.The first Mk2 model produced, this Velocette scrambler retains its original frame and engine but has had a change of gearbox. The Velo was purchased as a restoration project in 2006 (receipt on file). Its restoration was completed in 2014 and the machine comes with a comprehensive history file containing photographs and numerous bills from marque specialists Grove Classic Motorcycles of Cranfield, Bedfordshire.

1950 Sunbeam 489cc S7 De LuxeRegistration no. LGX 104 (see text)Frame no. S7 3493Engine no. S8 3204A wartime design by Erling Poppe, the Sunbeam inline twin was introduced by BSA, owners of Sunbeam Cycles Limited, in 1947. A luxury tourer, it was of advanced specification with overhead-camshaft engine, shaft drive and plunger rear suspension. The clutch housing and four-speed gearbox bolted directly to the back of the engine, which was rubber-mounted in the duplex loop frame, an innovation that required a flexible joint in the exhaust system ahead of the silencer. The first S7 version was equipped with balloon tyres, a feature not carried over to the deliberately more conventional, and also lighter and cheaper S8, introduced in 1949. The front fork and 7' brake were now standard BSA components, and there were numerous other changes in the interests of rationalisation. Never as popular as BSA's more performance orientated models, the gentlemanly S7 and S8 remained in production until 1957. This S7 Deluxe has been owned by vendor's family for between 30 and 50 years. Kept on display in a private museum, it has not run for at least 20 years and will require re-commissioning or possibly more extensive restoration before further use (the engine turns over). Engine and gearbox numbers match. There is no documentation or ignition key with this Lot. It should be noted that the registration 'LGX 104' is not listed in the HPI database; accordingly, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's registration status prior to bidding.

1949 Triumph 498cc Speed TwinRegistration no. LAU 899Frame no. TF 26981Engine no. 5T9104548Although Edward Turner's Triumph Speed Twin caused a sensation when it appeared at the 1937 Motorcycle Show, few of its admirers can have guessed how influential the design would prove to be. True, there had been vertical twins before; indeed, Turner's predecessor at Triumph - Val Page - had designed one a few years previously, but the Coventry firm's newcomer established a formula that would be adopted by all of Britain's major motorcycle manufacturers in the succeeding decade. And whereas previous vertical twins had suffered from excess bulk, Turner's was lighter and narrower across the crankcase than the contemporary single-cylinder Tiger 90, and from certain angles looked just like a twin-port single. Performance proved exemplary for a road-going 500, better than 100mph being attainable under favourable conditions. Our vendor acquired this Speed Twin in Reading as a 'barn find' over 20 years ago and had it completely restored. There are photographs on file of the machine 'as found' and undergoing restoration. Since completion the Triumph has been on display in the vendor's office and as such will require re-commissioning and safety checks prior to use. The old-style V5 on file records the owner in 1979 as one Leslie Hemmings of Leamington Spa, and there is also an MoT from 1979 (issued in Derby) when the recorded mileage was 45,060, and another from 1997 at 2 miles.Offered without keyFootnotes:All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Ex-Reg Barton, Dick Knight 1929 Brough Superior 996cc SS100 'Alpine Grand Sport' Sprint SpecialRegistration no. EY 3601Frame no. S1000 (see text)Engine no. JTOR/D 13560•Ex-Eric Fernihough Brooklands engine•Sprinted, raced and hill-climbed by Messrs Barton and Knight•Purchased by its late owner in 1979•Offered for sympathetic restorationIntroduced in 1922, the JAP-powered SS80 achieved instant fame when a racing version ridden by George became the first sidevalve-engined machine to lap Brooklands at over 100mph. With the new SS80's performance threatening to put the overhead-valve MkI in the shade, it was decided to completely redesign the latter. The result was the legendary SS100. First shown to the public in 1924, the SS100 employed an entirely new overhead-valve 980cc JAP v-twin engine. A frame of duplex cradle type was devised for the newcomer, which soon after its launch became available with the distinctive, Harley-Davidson-influenced, Castle front fork patented by George Brough and Harold 'Oily' Karslake. And just in case prospective customers had any doubts about the SS100's performance, each machine came with a written guarantee that it had been timed at over 100mph for a quarter of a mile - a staggering achievement at a time when very few road vehicles of any sort were capable of reaching three-figure speeds. With this level of performance available in road trim, it was only to be expected that the SS100 would make an impact on the race track, particularly the ultra-fast Brooklands oval, and the exploits of Brough Superior riders - among them Le Vack, Temple, Baragwanath, Fernihough and Pope - did much to burnish the marque's image. When Brooklands closed forever at the outbreak of WW2, Noel Pope's Brough Superior held both the sidecar and solo lap records, the latter at an average speed of 124.51mph. Success in an altogether different branch of motorcycle sport resulted in one of Brough's most iconic models: the SS100 'Alpine Grand Sports' or 'AGS'. Introduced in September 1925 for the 1926 season, this new machine took its name from the Austrian Alpine Trial, the 1925 event having been contested by a number of SS100s, one ridden by George Brough himself, resulting in the award of six cups, including one for 'Best Performance'. The introduction of the Alpine Grand Sports coincided with that of a new frame for the SS100, and the AGS came as standard with a lower compression ratio (making it more suitable for touring), a small fly-screen and a pair of tool boxes. Brough entered the 1930s with an entirely JAP-powered range and then in 1936 the SS100 was redesigned with an engine built by Associated Motor Cycles, in which form it continued until production ceased in 1939. Lighter and faster than the subsequent Matchless-engined version, the JAP-powered SS100 has long been regarded as the ultimate incarnation of this famous model. This particular SS100 - frame number 'S1000' - was despatched on 1st May 1929 complete with the spring frame, Castle forks and a two-seater sidecar, as recorded on the accompanying copy of its Works Record Card. The machine was supplied to R Evans & Sons and registered on Anglesey as 'EY 3601'. Frame number 'S1000' is a very clear factory stamping but the final two 00s appear to be over-stamped, possibly reflecting the fact that the frame had been returned to the factory and then reissued. Although the frame number is recorded in the HPI database as 'S1060', this is clearly a clerical error resulting from a misreading of the old RF.60 continuation logbook. Issued in July 1956, the logbook records regular licensing in Kent up to March 1959. The first name in the RF.60 is that of Reginald Barton of Farnborough, Kent, who registered the Brough on 22nd July 1952. Well-known motorcycling journalist John Griffith wrote an article about Reg Barton and his Broughs for Motor Cycling's 30th January 1958 edition (copy on file). There is also an old V5 on file. (The registration 'EY 3601' is recorded in the DVLA and HPI databases; nevertheless, prospective purchasers must satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's registration status prior to bidding.)The next owner listed in the RF.60 is Richard ('Dick') Knight, the well-known Brough Superior exponent and former Club President, who acquired 'EY 3601' in September 1975 and is believed to have rebuilt the machine in its present form. Engine 'JTOR/D 43560' is not ex-Brough but would have been manufactured in 1934 (finished Broughs with near numbers were ex-works in January I935). The engine is stamped 'Supplied by Fernihough Brooklands'. An old report in the Brough Club files states that the remains of the original engine ('33390') may have been with Dick Knight in the 1960s. The SS100 still has its original gearbox ('SB 192'), its original tank ('2027', detached) and its original Brough front numberplate. Modified by Dick Knight, 'EY 3601' was raced and sprinted extensively but with a 1930 SS100 engine (since reunited with its original frame) installed, and once achieved a speed of 122mph in a British National Sprint. An article about Dick Knight and his Brough Superiors was published in Superbike magazine's April 1979 edition (copy on file). The Brough later passed to Dick's son William and then, via dealer John Coleman, to the late Richard Gulvin in May 1979 (sales receipt on file). 'EY 3601' was in running order when acquired and Richard rode it in various Brough Superior Club events. In a letter on file, Richard Gulvin states that the engine came fitted with a set of Dick Knight's racing 'Brooklands' cams, reiterating: 'The engine is definitely a Fernihough Brooklands racing engine as prepared by Mr Dick Knight.' It is to be hoped that the fortunate next owner resists the temptation to restore 'EY 3601' to factory specification, as this wonderful old warhorse, which has been used competitively for most of its life, deserves to have its battle scars respected and preserved.

1955 Sunbeam 489cc S7 De LuxeRegistration no. UMB 459Frame no. S7-7543Engine no. S8 13310Designed in wartime by Erling Poppe, the Sunbeam inline twin was introduced in 1947. A luxury tourer inspired by the pre-war BMW, it was of advanced specification with an overhead-camshaft engine, telescopic front fork, shaft drive, and plunger rear suspension, these last three features being shared with its German inspiration. The Sunbeam S7 was equipped with balloon tyres, a feature not carried over to the deliberately more conventional, and also lighter and cheaper, S8 introduced in March 1949. The front fork and 7' brake were now standard BSA components and there were numerous other changes made in the interests of rationalisation, many of which were incorporated into the S7 De Luxe that superseded the S7 later that same year. Affectionately referred to as 'Lucy', this S7 De Luxe was purchased by the current vendor circa 1974 and used for commuting to and from his place of work until 1979. The Sunbeam was last used in the late 1980s and has been kept in dry storage since then. The machine is an ideal candidate for sympathetic restoration or possible use 'as is' following re-commissioning. A quantity of spares is offered together with the machine and includes, headlamp rims, silencer, distributor, exhaust manifolds, rubbers, gaskets, paint, a maintenance and repair manual; a (distressed) copy of The Book of the Sunbeam S7 and S8; a V5C; a set of keys, various bills and technical literature from marque specialists Stewart Engineering.

1977 Sammy Miller Honda TL125 Hi-Boy Trials MotorcycleRegistration no. XNC 555SFrame no. 362Engine no. TL125SE 1017102Honda's long line of successful off-road models commenced in 1972 with the launch of the SL250 trail bike, though the nomenclature soon changed to the more familiar XL250. The XL's single-cylinder four-stroke engine was typically Honda, being an all-alloy, four-valve unit, and this was housed in a robust cradle-type frame. The company's first proper trials machine - the TL125 of 1973 - was constructed along similar lines, and under the guidance of off-road maestro and many-time Trials Champion, Sammy Miller, was developed into a competitive mount for the clubman. Production continued until mid-1978. As well as helping develop the production TL125, Miller also offered his own 'H-Boy' frame kit, which as its name suggests had increased ground clearance while at the same time being lighter than the stock offering. Around 750 Miller Hi-Boy frames were made between 1974 and 1980. This restored Hi-Boy was purchased by the current vendor at a UK auction in September 2014, since when its has been kept as part of his extensive private collection within a climate-controlled environment. Re-commissioning will be required before further use. Accompanying documentation consists of the 2014 purchase receipt; an expired MoT (2015-2016); and a V5C Registration Certificate.

c.1942 Indian 500cc Model 741 Scout Military MotorcycleRegistration no. FDG 212Frame no. 741 5032Engine no. GDA12935•De-mobbed and sold by Pride & Clarke in 1946•Acquired by the previous owner in 2002•Restored to military specification•Many-time Malvern Classic Bike Show award winner•Featured in The Classic Motor CycleA smaller Indian v-twin model, the 37ci (600cc) Scout, joined the 61ci Powerplus in 1920. The newcomer soon gained a deserved reputation for durability: 'You can't wear out an Indian Scout' becoming its advertising slogan. Contributing to this longevity was the use of gears for the primary drive rather than the customary chain, and this unusual feature would endure until 1933. A 45ci (750cc) variant was first offered in 1927 and then in April 1928 the 101 Scout appeared featuring a revised 750cc 'flat head' engine in a new, longer-wheelbase frame. This sporting model would prove an immense success for Indian, so much so that its replacement in 1931 by a heavier Chief-framed model was greeted with dismay. Introduced in 1934, the Sport Scout went some way towards retrieving the Scout's reputation, featuring a lighter 'keystone' (open) frame and European-style girder forks. During WW2's early years the Scout was produced for Allied forces in 30.07ci (500cc) and 45ci military versions, designated Models 741 and 640 respectively, before the US Army switched to the ubiquitous Jeep. The designation later changed to 741A (500cc) and 741B (750cc).Built circa 1942 as a military model, this 741 Scout was de-mobbed after the war and sold off in 1946 via the famous Pride & Clarke dealership in South London. Many years later (in August 2002) the civilianised Indian was purchased by previous owner Tony Hutchinson. Tony decided to restore the machine and return it to military specification, as well as acquiring a GI helmet, uniform, and Thompson sub-machine gun (deactivated) to complete the ensemble. The Indian has since been ridden on various parades and won no fewer than six awards at the Malvern Classic Bike Show over the period 2005-2009. It has also been the subject of an article published in The Classic Motor Cycle's March 2011 edition (copy available). Accompanying documentation consists of a V5C Registration Certificate; a quantity of MoTs dating back to 2006 (most recent expired 2019); and a firearms deactivation certificate for the Tommygun. The MoTs show that the Indian had covered only 2,215 post-restoration miles by the time the last was issued in 2018. The aforementioned Tommygun, helmet, uniform and concours awards are included in the sale together with instruction manuals for the motorcycle and Tommygun. A guaranteed head-turner at any military vehicle event or 1940s gathering, this wonderfully evocative Indian Scout is sure to delight the fortunate next owner.
