Property of a deceased's estate 1982 BMW 980cc R100RSRegistration no. PNT 705XFrame no. 6077319 R100RSEngine no. 6077319Just a few years after introducing the R90/6 and R90S, BMW upped the capacity of its range-topping flat-twins to 980cc for the 1977 season in the form of the R100/7 series, the flagship of this new line-up being the fully-faired R100RS superbike. This R100RS is offered from the collection of the lady vendor's late father. Currently displaying a total of 60,952 miles on the odometer, the machine is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed, its mechanical condition being unknown. Accompanying documentation consists of an old-style V5; some expired MoTs (most recent 1994); various bills/invoices; a rider's handbook; and a Haynes manual. The registration 'PNY 705X' is listed in the HPI database; nevertheless, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's registration status prior to bidding.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 the late Alan Windsor 1952 Vincent 998cc Series-C RapideRegistration no. 373 YUAFrame no. RC10197/C Rear frame no. RC10197/CEngine no. F10AB/1/8932 (see text) Crankcase mating no. II46 (see text)Ever since the Series-A Rapide's arrival in 1937, the Vincent v-twin has been synonymous with design innovation and engineering excellence. But above all else it was the v-twin's stupendous performance that captivated motorcyclists. With a top speed approaching 120mph, and bettering it in the Black Shadow's case, the Vincent v-twin was the fastest road vehicle of its day.Factory records held by the Vincent Owners' Club show that this machine's upper/lower frame numbers correspond to those of a Rapide manufactured in January 1952. However, it should be noted that the engine number appears to have been re-stamped and that the crankcases with the mating number 'II46' are wrong for engine number '8932', which in any case left the factory with frame 'RC/10832/C'. The machine was last taxed in 2011 but we are advised that it was re-commissioned and ridden a couple of years ago, performing well at that time, and should require relatively little further re-commissioning before returning to the road. Notable features include a Smiths 150mph speedometer and a Tread Down centre stand. The machine is offered with a file of history to include an old-style logbook; sundry bills; assorted correspondence; a quantity of MoTs; old/current V5/V5C documents; a workshop manual; and an original Vincent Rider's Handbook.

Property of the late Alan Windsor 1979 Honda CBX1000ZRegistration no. HLH 556TFrame no. CB1-2001907Engine no. none visibleJust as it had in the preceding decade with the four-cylinder CB750, Honda stunned the world again in the 1970s, introducing the Gold Wing super-tourer and the outrageous six-cylinder CBX1000. Launched in 1978, the latter was not the first six of the modern era, Benelli's 750 Sei having beaten it by a couple of years, but it was by far the biggest and fastest. Weighing around 550lbs and with 105bhp on tap, the CBX was good for 130mph and scorched through the standing quarter-mile in around 12 seconds. For most owners though, it was not the CBX's performance so much as its on-road presence that mattered. Even today, few bikes can match it for charisma, visual appeal and, above all, sound. Believed imported from the USA circa 1993, this desirable, twin-shock example of an increasingly collectible classic was purchased by Alan in June 1998 (bill of sale on file). The V5C states two former keepers and that the machine was registered/used overseas. Additional paperwork includes older V5/V5C documents; a quantity of MoTs (most recent expired 2013); and an owner's manual. Last taxed in 2013, and with a total of 13,808 miles showing on the odometer, the machine appears to be in good cosmetic condition but will require re-commissioning to a greater or lesser extent before further use. Its mechanical condition is not known.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 1964 Honda CB160Registration no. AKO 57BFrame no. B160 1000039Engine no. B160E 9006549Launched in 1964, the CB160 followed the pattern of previous Honda parallel twins, though with 360-degree crankshaft layout rather than the larger twins' 180-degree type, and used the recently introduced tubular spine frame and telescopic forks. Small as a '125' yet packing a 16.5bhp punch, the CB160's excellent power-to-weight ratio and fine handling endowed it with performance at least equal to that of most British 250s. With an overhead-camshaft engine, electric starter, rev counter and a twin-leading-shoe front brake, the CB160's specification and degree of refinement was unmatched by any of its home-grown rivals. It is now one of the most desirable of early Japanese classics. Alan Windsor purchased this CB160 from his friend, the late Colin Seeley, in October 2015 (sales receipt on file). An older restoration, the Honda had previously belonged to Mr Kevin Fitzgerald, who took it to his home in France, and before him to one Charlie Williams (see letter on file). Colin Seeley had owned the machine since 2008 when it was re-imported from France. The current odometer reading is 29,988 miles. Re-commissioning to a greater or lesser extent will be required before this charming little Honda returns to the road. The machine is offered with DVLA correspondence, a V5C document, and a (copy) workshop manual.

1971 Honda CD175Registration no. PBX 138JFrame no. CD175 2018255Engine no. CD175E 2019505Introduced in 1966, the Honda CD175 was aimed squarely at the market sector that regarded motorcycles merely as cheap and convenient transport rather than thrilling lifestyle accessories. The air-cooled twin-cylinder engine was constructed along Honda's established lines, boasting a single overhead camshaft, electric starter, and integral four-speed gearbox. Not exactly an exciting performer, the CD175 would nevertheless cruise comfortably at 65mph while at the same time delivering around 70 miles to every gallon. A lengthy - by Japanese standards - production run of almost 12 years proved the soundness of the basic concept. Photographs and bills on file indicate that this Honda CD175 was restored circa 2002/2003. The machine is offered for sale from a collection of 'display motorcycles' belonging to a well-known West Country dealership. All oils have been drained, and re-commissioning will be required before the machine returns to the road. Last run in 2019, and currently displaying a total of 18,446 miles on the odometer, the Honda is offered with V5C documents; MoT (expired 2008); owner's manual; list of parts replaced; the aforementioned bills and photographs; and a set of keys.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1969 Yamaha 80 YG1Registration no. YRL 596JFrame no. G3-016319Engine no. G3-016319The nominally 80cc class has long been favoured by the major Japanese manufacturers, providing a convenient route into motorcycling for younger riders as well as cheap transport for city commuters. First introduced in 1963, Yamaha's YG1 was powered by a 73cc single-cylinder disc-valve two-stroke engine with integral four-speed gearbox, which was housed in a spine-type frame.This Yamaha 80 was restored in 2003 and is offered for sale from a collection of 'display motorcycles' belonging to a well-known West Country dealership, which supplied it new in 1969. All oils have been drained, and re-commissioning will be required before the machine returns to the road. Last run in 2005, and currently showing 29,550 miles on the odometer, the Yamaha is offered with a dating letter; owner's manual; some tax discs and MoTs; old-style V5C document; and a set of keys.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1969 Yamaha 100 LT5 TrailmasterRegistration no. HUM 347GFrame no. LT5-005527Engine no. LT5-005527The increasing popularity of off-road riding in North America throughout the 1960s meant that the major manufacturers had to have a trail-styled model in every capacity class, even down to 50cc 'tiddlers'. Yamaha first introduced the Trailmaster series in 1967 and a couple of years later added the LT5 to the range. Undeniably handsome, the LT5 was unusual in having a three-speed dual-range transmission: 'low' for off-road work and 'high' for use on the road, with maximum speeds of around 35mph and 65mph respectively. The 97cc air-cooled single-cylinder two-stroke engine developed 8bhp and was lubricated by Yamaha's Autolube pumped system. With a minimum ground clearance exceeding 8' and weighing only 198lb, the little LT5 was easy to handle and, courtesy of its dual range transmission, one of the more versatile machines in its class. A model rarely seen in Europe, this LT5 was first registered in the UK in 2006. Restored in 2013, it was acquired by the vendor in 2014 (which is when it last ran) and since then has formed part of a well-known West Country motorcycle dealership's collection of 'display motorcycles'. This machine will require re-commissioning before further use. Currently showing 959 miles on the odometer (believed the distance travelled since restoration), this charming Yamaha trail bike is offered with a rider's manual, a service manual, a V5C document, and three keys.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Property of a deceased's estate 1990 Honda RS250R Racing MotorcycleFrame no. RS250RF 9010026 Engine no. RS250RE-9010027•HRC race-kitted RS250R originally intended for the HB team in Germany•Diverted and delivered new to the UK•Very little use in period•Unused since its acquisition in 1995Honda were latecomers in offering a 250cc production racer - the first RS250R not appearing until 1984 - and immediately found themselves at a disadvantage to Yamaha's long established TZ. Honda's problems stemmed from the fact that their new v-twin was based on the NS250 roadster, and thus even in race trim was both under powered and over weight. Its 1985 successor addressed these failings, boasting a new aluminium twin-spar frame and heavily revised engine. Reconfigured, the RS250R provided Joey Dunlop with his first Isle of Man Junior TT victory that year, while Massimo Matteoni won the European Championship's 250cc title. Freddie Spencer rode the works version to the 250cc World Championship in '85 and added the 500cc title for good measure, the first time this double had been done in the same year. The RS250R was mildly revised for 1986 before undergoing a wholesale redesign for '87, re-emerging as a replica of Spencer's works bike complete with 54x54.5mm crankcase-reed engine and cassette-type gearbox. For the '88 model, Honda ditched the ATAC exhausts, adopting conventional variable-height power valves and cylinders with appropriately revised porting. Front fork diameter increased and the TRAC anti-dive was dropped, while the existing combination of 17' front/18' rear wheels continued. A maximum power output of 71bhp and dry weight of 226lbs was claimed, and the RS continued unchanged for 1989. This 1990 RS250R was originally intended for the HB-sponsored race team. The team raced a pair of factory NSR250s for Helmut Bradl and a pair of race-kitted RS250Rs for Stefan Prein. However, this particular machine was shipped straight to the UK for a firm in the North West of England that had supplied industrial and scientific furnaces to Honda Racing Corporation in Japan. The RS was used for display and ridden once in a shakedown at a New Brighton meeting. The Honda then passed to Cheshire-based builder P W Danby, during whose ownership the Honda was raced at Darley Moor in 1994, still in HB livery (see photographs on file). The late owner purchased the machine from P W Danby in June 1995 (receipt on file). In 1997 the RS was displayed at the Stafford Classic Bike Show, entered by De La Salle College, Malvern. As presented today, the Honda appears complete but its mechanical condition is not known. Standing unused for some considerable time, the machine will require re-commissioning or possibly more extensive restoration before further use. Sold strictly as viewed, it comes with a history file; owner's manual/part list (x2); and a substantial quantity of technical literature.

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.

Property of a deceased's estate 1963 BSA 646cc Rocket Gold Star ReplicaRegistration no. WPV 862AFrame no. GA10.1402 (see text)Engine no. DA10 R 10018Widely recognised as one of the most desirable of all factory built 'café racers', the Rocket Gold Star arrived in 1962 together with the first of BSA's new unitary construction range. A combination of - mainly - Gold Star cycle parts and the A10 Super Rocket twin-cylinder engine, the newcomer represented the last of the old pre-unit line rather than a new departure, and thus was destined for a relatively short life. The model was offered in a number of different forms and with a host of options relating to controls and equipment. Around 1,800 were made over a two-year period. Today genuine examples are highly sought after, their relative scarcity leading to the construction of numerous replicas. Carrying an Ipswich registration, this beautifully restored Rocket Gold Star Replica was purchased 'sold as seen' from Roger Sharman of Cake St Classics in 2001/2002 (receipts on file). The frame/engine numbers match those of a Rocket Gold Star despatched in May 1963 to C Cope of Birmingham, but it should be noted that the frame number is not a BSA factory stamping, hence this machine must be considered a replica (see GSOC correspondence on file). Unfortunately no other history is known. The machine also comes with an original RGS instruction manual and old/current V5/V5C documents showing the date of first registration as 1st September 2001.

1954 BSA 646cc 'Rocket Gold Star' ReplicaRegistration no. 743 XUSFrame no. CA7 1940Engine no. CA10R 9367 (see text)'743 XUS' was purchased by the vendor in 2013 (receipt on file). The vendor advises that the bike had been restored and converted to RGS trim by a previous owner; he also advises that the last owner further improved the machine by fitting a new carburettor, new fork stanchions and bushes, a Newby belt drive kit, a tachometer, and sundry other parts, as evidenced by receipts and invoices on file. A new exhaust pipe and silencer were fitted, and further work was carried out on the gearbox. After acquisition by the vendor, he covered only 86 miles, after which, health problems prevented further use, and the machine has since been kept in a vacuum bag. The fluids were drained, and the tyres kept up to pressure and rotated. Realising that he may not be able to use the machine, he wishes it to go to a new owner who can give it the use it deserves. In view of the dry storage period, 743 XUS will require modest re-commissioning and safety checks prior to returning to the road. Please note that the engine number is not a factory stamping. The enduring popularity of machines such as this, is the attraction of owning a machine which looks, and performs, just like the real thing at a fraction of the price. Documentation comprises a current V5C, some expired MoT certificates, the aforementioned purchase receipt, invoices, a workshop manual, and sundry papers.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

1953/58 BSA 500cc Gold StarRegistration no. VYD 77Frame no. BB32A 141Engine no. DBD34GS 3542Carrying the 1956 registration 'VYD 77', this BSA Gold Star consists of a frame dating from circa 1953 and an engine dating from circa 1958. The frame is of the swinging-arm type, with rear-set loops and folding footrests. The front forks are externally standard but have been upgraded with Eddie Dow longer bushes and internal two-way damping rods with standard top nuts. The wheels have alloy rims shod with Avon tyres: Speedmaster Mk2 at the front, Roadrunner at the rear. Lubricated by Castrol R40, the DBD engine features an Amal 1½' GP carburettor; Lucas mag-dyno; chromed swept-back exhaust pipe; and a chromed silencer that emits that classic Gold Star twitter. The gearbox is the standard (STD) type. 'VYD 77' was last MoT'd in September 1998 and is currently SORN'd. The Goldie was last ridden to a classic vehicle show some 10-20 years ago and then placed in a modern dry garage. The vendor advises us that it was running well when last ridden. Not used for many years, the machine will require careful re-commissioning before returning to the road (the engine turns over). Offered with sundry bills; expired MoTs; BMS workshop manual; Eddie Dow catalogue; and old/current V5/V5C documents.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

1969 BSA 740cc Rocket IIIRegistration no. not UK registeredFrame no. CC02257- A75REngine no. CC02257-A75REssentially a 'Tiger-and-a-half', the Triumph and BSA 750cc triples were launched in 1969. BSA-Triumph had learned a lot about engine development from racing the 500cc twins, and the triples were the most powerful machines in their class. Differences between the Triumph Trident and BSA Rocket III were more than just cosmetic: the two models used different frames and in BSA guise the motor's cylinder block was inclined forwards. Only the Trident survived the Group's collapse in 1972, continuing as the T150V (with five-speed gearbox) and later the T160 (using the BSA-type engine). The number of important production race victories achieved (notably by the works Triumph 'Slippery Sam') is eloquent testimony to how effective a high-speed road-burner a well-fettled triple can be. Today they enjoy an enthusiastic following worldwide and are supported by numerous recognised specialists and a first rate owners' club – the TR3OC – whose annual 'Beezumph Rally' is highly recommended. This Rocket III has had five owners from new and had formed part to the preceding custodian's private collection for some eight years when it was purchased by the current vendor at Bonhams' Paris sale in February 2015 (Lot 236). Finished in red, the BSA is described as in generally good original condition, benefiting from new carburettors fitted in 2013. Offered with its original Italian libretto, owner's manual and keys, the machine has not been run since 2015 and will require re-commissioning before further use.

1961 BMW 590cc R69SRegistration no. 645 KNKFrame no. 655536Engine no. 655536The vendor, a now retired motorcycle dealer, believes that this BMW R69S's displayed mileage of 3,559 is the total covered from new although this is not warranted. The motorcycle was given to him in 1993 by its original owner, a grateful customer. The bike has been laid up for a number of years due to the vendor's poor health. At some point during this period the previously bone dry storage area became damp due to drainage problems from a neighbouring house and garden. By the time the vendor became aware of this situation, the BMW's previously excellent cosmetic condition had deteriorated somewhat. However, it should be noted that the engine turns over and all the gears select however the mechanical condition is unknown. The following components are supplied although not currently fitted: a pair of stainless steel exhaust pipes & silencers in apparently good condition, one carburettor (the other is fitted), the fuel tap, side stand, a toolkit (most of which is believed original, with only a few items missing), and the original BMW instruction manual. A V5C and steering lock key are supplied, but the air cleaner assembly and ignition key are noticeably missing. Accordingly prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the motorcycle's completeness and mechanical condition prior to bidding. Recommissioning and some restoration will obviously be required to return it to its former glory. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a potentially very low mileage two owner R69S, which is offered for sale only because of the vendor's advancing years and recent ill health.

1986 BMW 650cc R65Registration no. D296 LMGFrame no. WB1046200H6128488Engine no. 20/86/0122 HBM 098042AXBMW extended its range of horizontally-opposed twins in the late 1970s with the introduction of the R45 and R65. Looking very much like scaled down versions of BMW's larger models, the duo, which shared identical cycle parts, featured sharper, more modern styling while both weight and overall dimensions were reduced. 'The R65 really is an amazing all-rounder,' declared Bike magazine's tester back in 1982. 'There's 100mph perform¬ance, 57mpg if you're gentle and 41mpg if you're not, a five-gallon tank that makes touring Eng¬land at weekends a less anxious business than it usually is, superlative brakes, a comfortable riding position, excellent tyres, long travel sus¬pension and handling that will get you out of trouble over and over again. Add shaft drive and relatively smooth power and you should be marketing a winner. So why don't you see more R65s on British roads?' The answer was, of course, price. At £2,363 in 1982 the R65 was over £600 more expensive than the faster Suzuki GS650 Katana, which likewise offered the convenience of shaft drive. An imported later mono-shock model (first UK registered in 1991), this R65 shows a total of 12,971 miles on the odometer and is presented in largely original condition, including its factory paintwork. The machine is offered with a rider's manual (for US models), a V5C document, two MoTs, and two keys.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1982 Kawasaki Z1300Registration no. MAB 225XFrame no. JKAKZA19CA014256Engine no. KZT30AE014914Having seen its Z1000 deposed as top superbike by Honda's outrageous six-cylinder CBX, it was inevitable that Kawasaki would strike back. Enter the Z1300. Launched in 1978 to a fanfare of superlatives - biggest, heaviest, most powerful, fastest - Kawasaki's new flagship was more super-tourer than outright sports bike, its 140mph top speed notwithstanding. Weighing close to 700lb and producing an astonishing - at that time - 120bhp, the Z1300 promised to be a real handful but in fact handled 'predictably and reassuringly over virtually any kind of surface' according to Bike magazine. Imported from the USA and first registered in the UK on 1st March 1991, this Z1300 was purchased by the immediately preceding owner from Motorcycles Unlimited of Greenford, Middlesex on 18th July 2012 (sales receipt available). In April 2013 it was serviced and cosmetically restored by Portman Motorcycles, the re-spray being entrusted to Dream Machine (bills on file). The current vendor purchased the Kawasaki from Bonhams' sale of the Mikos Salamon Collection at Stafford in April 2018 (Lot 252), since when it has been kept as part of their extensive private collection within a climate-controlled environment. A new battery was fitted earlier this year and the machine passed the MoT test in March 2022. Accompanying paperwork includes numerous invoices; a copy of the old US title; a quantity of expired MoTs; V5C registration documents; and a service manual.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

LAV650 ZLV650SP 100001097Engine no. 1097Having established its performance credentials with a succession of big three-cylinder sports bikes during the 1970s, most notably the fire-breathing Jota, Laverda emerged from a succession of financial upheavals with a new range for the 1990s. The first of these was the 650 Sport, which used a 668cc development of the old Alpino '500' 8-valve twin-cylinder engine housed in a state-of-the-art aluminium twin-spar chassis designed by frame and suspension guru, Nico Bakker. Sadly, Laverda's new owners Gruppo Zanini collapsed in 1992 after only a handful of machines had been assembled, leaving the new owners to build the first production 650 Sports using Zanini's component stocks. These early examples, which feature White Power suspension, are generally considered of better quality than those built subsequently, which tended to suffer from cylinder head and piston problems. This early White Power-equipped 650 Sport was first registered on 9th November 1994 as 'M151 JPJ', and was first registered in the Isle of Man on 1st November 2005. The current owner purchased the Laverda at Bonhams' sale of the Robert White Collection in September 2016 (Lot 605), since when it has been kept as part of their extensive private collection within a climate-controlled environment. Believed last run in 2010, the machine will require re-commissioning before returning to the road. Accompanying paperwork includes an owner's manual, a workshop manual, and an Isle of Man Vehicle Registration Certificate. The machine is Datatagged.

In a publicity masterstroke, the factory announced that production would commence with a limited edition of 300 very special F4s: the 'Serie Oro' (Gold Series). Once the Serie Oro models had been completed, manufacture of the mainstream F4S (Strada) commenced. Designed by Massimo Tamburini, creator of the Ducati 916, the F4 employed a tubular-steel trellis frame, broadly similar to the Ducati's, carrying the water-cooled double-overhead-camshaft 16-valve engine. Designed by Ferrari, this state-of-the-art power unit produced a class leading 135bhp, while a cassette-type six-speed gearbox enabled ratios to be changed without splitting the engine. But above all else it is the F4's inspired styling that stands out; now 24 years old, the F4 would still look futuristic if it were to be released as a new model today. One of the very first F4S production models, this example was owned from new by prominent motorcycling journalist and classic racer, Alan Cathcart, and has been personally autographed by both Massimo Tamburini and MV Agusta CEO Claudio Castiglioni. The current (second) owner purchased the MV at Bonhams' Stafford sale in October 2014 (Lot 324), since when it has been kept on museum display. Last run in 2014 and presented in effectively 'as new' condition, the machine is offered with its original warranty booklet and owner's manual; an MV Agusta Certificate of Conformity; and an old-style V5 registration document.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

1981 Yamaha RD250LCRegistration no. A689 TBWFrame no. 4L1-530774Engine no. 4L1-530774No motorcycle of recent times has achieved 'cult' status to the same extent as Yamaha's legendary 'LC'. Launched at the Tokyo Show in 1980, the RD250/350LC marked the introduction of water cooling to Yamaha's range of potent middleweight two-strokes while also bringing mono-shock rear suspension and – in the 350's case - twin disc front brakes to the package for the first time. Water-cooling had been a feature of the firm's TZ racers for some years and the family resemblance was obvious. The LC was relatively inexpensive, endearing itself to impecunious younger riders whose high-street stunts rapidly established the easily wheelied LC's 'hooligan bike' credentials. This RD250LC was built in August 1981 (the first month of 1982-model production) for the West German market (copy Fahrzeugbrief on file). 'A689 TBW' was first registered in the UK on 1st February 2019 having been purchased by the vendor the previous year, advertised as a project to 'ride or restore'. The sympathetic restoration took four years to complete. Accompanying the machine is a very comprehensive file containing numerous invoices for parts; a NOVA submission printout; DVLA paperwork; VJMC dating letter; two expired MoTs; a current V5C document; and MoT to February 2023. The machine also comes with it's tool tray and helmet lock, a copy parts catalogue, Haynes manual and two sets of keys. It should be noted that the speedometer is in kilometres.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1997 Honda CBR900RR FirebladeRegistration no. P115 OTWFrame no. JH25C33A4VM102656Engine no. SC33E2107948Every so often a model comes along that rewrites the rulebook for sports motorcycles, one of the most influential of modern times being Honda's Fireblade. Launched in 1992, the Fireblade blew away the opposition – principally Yamaha's FZR1000 and Suzuki's GSX-R1100 - with its combination of litre-bike performance and a 600-sized package. Superbly styled and evocatively titled, it was recognised as a future classic almost immediately, and early and unmolested examples command high prices today. Progressively developed, the Blade has occasionally fallen behind the opposition but today's version is back at the top of the tree.The example offered here belongs to the Fireblade's third generation that was new for 1996, boasting a new frame and revised suspension as well as an engine enlarged to 919cc. 'P115 OTW' has had five former keepers and comes with part service history up to the 12,000-mile service (the current odometer reading is 22,748 miles). There are eight expired MoTs on file dating back to 2010, and the machine also comes with its original service book and owner's manual; old/current V5/V5C registration documents; and a set of keys. Last run in March 2022, the 'Blade is described by the private vendor as in good condition throughout.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

c.1988 Suzuki GSX-R400Registration no. E470 NOUFrame no. GK73A 100736Engine no. K707 100993The first of Suzuki's GSX-R sports bikes, the GSX-R400 debuted in Japan in 1984. Never officially imported into the UK, it underwent the first of many redesigns for 1986, emerging with a new aluminium twin-spar frame and the 'Suzuki Advanced Cooling System' that relied heavily on internal oil cooling for the engine. Handling was universally hailed as excellent, although like all its 400-class rivals the little Suzuki needed thrashing to get anywhere in a hurry. First UK registered in 1998, this imported example features Suzuki's classic blue/white livery and has been fitted with a Vampire end can, tinted screen, and 'wavy' front brake discs. We are advised by the vendor that the machine last ran in 2015 and that the carburettors need cleaning (the engine runs roughly). Recent re-commissioning included a radiator flush; changing the engine oil and filter; and fitting a new battery and spark plugs. The machine is offered with sundry bills; expired MoTs; a V5C document; DVLA MoT check; workshop manual; and keys.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 biddingFor further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1976 Harley-Davidson 998cc XLCR Cafe RacerRegistration no. SPL 772RFrame no. 7F00102H7Engine no. 7F00102H7Harley-Davidson had been building the Sportster for years but by the mid-1970s it had become obvious that something better would be required to compete with the hottest new road bikes from Europe and Japan. Harley's riposte was the XLCR 'Café Racer', which combined the iron-barreled Sportster engine with a chassis incorporating an XR750-style box-section swingarm, cast alloy wheels and triple disc brakes. With its matt black-finished engine cases, matching exhaust system and sleek glassfibre bodywork, the XLCR looked lean and mean. Trouble was, The XLCR still couldn't cut it with the opposition and traditional Harley owners didn't know what to make of it. Sales were disappointing and the model was dropped after only two years in production. Sonly some 3,000-or-so were made and today the rare and stylish XLCR is highly prized by collectors. The Harley-Davidson XLCR offered here was used overseas before being imported and registered in the UK in September 1990. A new speedometer has been fitted and the machine benefits from the following upgrades: drilled brake discs all round; fork brace; Harrison Billet rear brake calliper; Harley-Davidson 40mm CV carburettor; electronic ignition; Progressive shock absorbers; HEL brake hoses; chromed rear brake reservoir; oil filter; and a K&N velocity stack air filter (within the existing housing). The battery and Avon Road Runner tyres are new. The private vendor describes the machine as in generally good condition, the engine said to be 'average' for the 18,449 miles recorded. The machine is offered with an owner's manual and a V5C document, while the original speedometer and a new '1000' air filter badge are included in the sale.

Property of a deceased's estate 1942 Harley-Davidson 750cc WLC ProjectEngine no. 42WLC279 (plus 2794 and BW106711 - see text)•Wartime Canadian-built military model•Purchased at a Ministry of Supply auction in 1947 and dismantled•Loosely assembled•Offered for restorationIntroduced in 1929 as a competitor to Indian's successful 750cc 'flat head' (sidevalve) v-twin, the Harley-Davidson Model D - better known as the '45' (its capacity in cubic inches) - really took off when the USA's entry into WW2 created an unprecedented demand for military motorcycles. Around 90,000 of the WL (military) version had rolled off the Milwaukee production lines before hostilities ceased, and the Harley '45' saw action in just about every theatre of war. De-mobbed Harleys helped meet the upsurge in demand for motorcycles in the immediate post-war years, doing much to establish the marque's reputation worldwide.This Canadian-built WLC Military Model served with the Canadian National Defence Force and was used on an air base in Oxfordshire, taking aircrew and engineers around the base, hence the very low recorded mileage of 486. On 18th July 1947 the Harley was purchased at an auction in Reading held by Simmons & Sons (who were acting for the Ministry of Supply) by RAF Flight Sergeant Martin Stevens, an aircraft mechanical engineer and motorcycle enthusiast. The purchase price was £57 10s. Flight Sergeant Stevens rode the machine straight back to his home in Buckinghamshire where he and his friend dismantled it so that they could re-spray it in non-military colours. However, they never got round to this and the bike remained in pieces in the barn (see photograph on file). Martin's family were aware of the Harley but it almost became mythical, with no one actually seeing it until after Martin's death almost 70 years later. The bike was left to his nephew, Raymond Biggs, who shared Martin's passion for motorcycles. Raymond had hoped to rebuild the bike himself but sadly it would be a project that was never completed. The machine is currently loosely bolted together and comes with its original rack, which in itself is an extremely rare item. Accompanying documentation includes the original bills of sale from Simmons & Sons Auctioneers and the Ministry of Supply, all dated 18th July 1947. Additionally, the bike comes with an original running and adjusting instruction manual.The vendor advises us that they have spoken to a well-known classic military vehicle enthusiast (who owns several of these machines) who confirms that it was normal practice to have an engine re-stamp. However, there is no documentary evidence to support this. Accordingly, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's authenticity, originality, completeness and condition prior to bidding (close inspection advised).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
