Property of a deceased's estate 1981 Laverda 981cc Jota '120'Registration no. AGT 772WFrame no. LAV1000/3CL 8469Engine no. 1000 8469Blessed with one of the most evocative names in motorcycling history, the Jota was the bike that really put Laverda on the map. Its direct progenitor was the tuned version of the Italian firm's 3C triple - the 3C(E) - developed for production racing by the UK importer, Slater Brothers. The production Jota was both more highly tuned and quicker, its 140mph top speed making it the world's fastest road-going production motorcycle at the time of its launch for 1976. It was also pretty handy on the racetrack, winning the UK's Avon championship in 1976 and 1978 in the hands of Pete Davies. Few major changes were made to the Jota prior to 1982 when a heavily revised version was introduced, complete with a 120-degree crankshaft that made for a more even firing order. This Jota '120' was purchased by its late owner in 2005 (bill of sale on file). An older restoration, the machine displays a total of 35,216 kilometres on the odometer and appears in nice condition. Last MoT'd in 2007, it will require re-commissioning before returning to the road. The history file contains correspondence; photocopies of marque-related literature; technical notes and diagrams; SORN paperwork; pre-restoration photographs; sundry invoices; expired MoTs; original handbook and workshop manual; a V5C; and a Laverda Owners Club 'Highly Commended' rosette from 2006. Currently detached the Jota also includes the front headlight fairing.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1977 Honda CD175Registration no. UPE 444SFrame no. CD175-4068898Engine no. CD175E-4072779Introduced 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. 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 rightness of the basic concept. Purchased at Kempton Park in November 2004 and last taxed in January 2005, this example displays a total of 2,988 miles on the odometer, which is believed to be the distance covered since its restoration by the preceding owner (see photo album). Presented in generally good condition, the machine has not been touched since acquisition and will require re-commissioning before further use. The accompanying folder contains a Haynes workshop manual; sundry restoration bills; SORN acknowledgements; photocopy technical literature; expired MoTs; and old/current V5C Registration Certificates.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
c.1938 Triumph 249cc Model 2H Racing MotorcycleRegistration no. not registeredFrame no. none visibleEngine no. 8-2H 3S 11523Just as he had done at Ariel in the 1920s, Val Page transformed his employer's ageing range on his arrival at Triumph as Chief Designer in 1932. The new line-up comprised overhead-valve and sidevalve singles in capacities ranging from 250cc to 500cc, plus the range-topping 650cc 6/1 sidecar tug. Endowed with distinctive timing-gear covers - a feature Page would employ at BSA later in the decade - the engines were simple yet robust in construction and amenable to a fair degree of tuning in the case of the overhead-valve units. Suitably embellished with extra chrome, the latter formed the basis for Edward Turner's stylish Tiger models from 1936 onwards. Many of these Triumph singles were modified for racing both before WW2 and immediately afterwards; indeed, a Tiger 70 ridden by Bill McVeigh won the first Clubman's Lightweight TT in 1947, only to be disqualified when it was found that a re-bore had taken his engine fractionally over the 250cc limit!This 250cc Model 2H has been modified for Historic racing and represents a relatively inexpensive and cheap to run means of entering this popular and friendly form of motorcycle sport. The Triumph carries scrutineers' tags for the 1993 'Tributes to Surtees' event at Brands Hatch. The machine is offered with a folder containing correspondence and a BMS reproduction operating manual and spare parts list.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
