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

Lot 2009
In late 1970 BSA unveiled a revised version of the mighty Rocket 3. Although the frame remained largely as before the voluptuous styling of the first series gave way to a lighter, leaner style with revised mudguards and simpler sidepanels complimented by tapered megaphone type silencers, slimline front forks bereft of gaiters and shock absorbers with exposed springs. The groups new twin leading shoe conical front brake and hub was adopted and the front tyre size now mirrored that of the rear. Indicators were fitted as standard and the alloy oil cooler endcaps were deleted. The UK market retained the 4.25 gallon tank while US spec machines, as offered here, employed an attractive 2.5 gallon unit. The engine remained largely unchanged, although the gearing benefitted from a smaller gearbox sprocket which improved performance. The US specification machine offered was imported from France and restored to original specification during 2000. The vendor describes it as being excellent condition in all respects with the striking candy apple red paintwork, black frame and brightwork ensuring that it will daw admiring attention. It is offered with a Swansea V5C.

c.1964 Honda CB77 Bike Year: c.1964 Bike Make: Honda Bike Model: CB77 Bike Reg No.: N/A Bike Frame No.: T.B.A. Bike Engine No.: T.B.A. Bike Colour: Red Honda had introduced the 250cc CB72 Super Sport or Hawk during 1960 and followed it in 1963 with the 305cc CB77 Super Hawk. The new model, which produced a claimed 28.5 bhp in comparison to the 250`s 24 bhp, was virtually identical to its smaller sibling and quickly established itself as Honda`s most popular model in the all important US market. Inevitably the two machines quickly attracted the interest of the tuning fraternity who were quick to recognise the machines potential and prompted Honda to introduce a tuning kit of their own for the them. This example was purchased by the vendor in the States and apparently has a number of the tuning components fitted. Finished to a high standard in red and silver with chromium plated tank panels, it is presented in stripped down, competition form with the road legal niceties removed and fitted with megaphone silencers, rear sets, clip-ons, alloy rims, a brake cooling scoop on the front unit and a single, racing seat.

c.1962 Honda CB92 Bike Year: c.1962 Bike Make: Honda Bike Model: CB92 Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: T.B.A. Bike Engine No.: CB92E-21011306 Bike Colour: Red / Silver The impact of the Honda CB92 125cc twin cannot be underestimated, prior to its arrival in the UK in late 1961, 125`s were regarded as nothing more than cheap transport for those who had no interest in motorcycles other than as an alternative to the bus and were happy to progress at no more than 45mph! The CB92 changed that perception with a top speed in excess of most 250`s, the majority of 350`s and the equal of all but the best 500`s. However, this represented only half of its appeal, the fact that it used its oil to lubricate the engine and not waterproof the road and was equipped with excellent brakes and an electric starter endeared it to a new breed of rider. Fortunately for the British manufacturers it did have flaws, the styling with its pressed steel leading link forks and spine frame was challenging for some and the single over head cam engines appetite for revs required a riding style that many riders could not adjust to. A "race kit" costing ú58 (in 1961) could be purchased by those wishing to compete or simply seeking more performance. The kit consisted of a racing camshaft, a megaphone exhaust system, dropped handlebars, a racing saddle and a rev-counter. With the addition of the optional dolphin fairing and a little tuning the machines top speed rose form 81mph to over 100mph. This delightful example has formed part of a private collection and is presented to a very high standard. Finished in blue and silver it retains the vulnerable flyscreen and scarce one piece tank rubber. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

A rare Memorial Plaque and Scroll posthumously awarded to Able Seaman Edward Henry Coase, Royal Navy, who was killed in the H.M.S. Glowworm explosion on the Dvina River, 25 August 1919 Memorial Plaque 1914-18 (Edward Henry Coase) with associated slip in card envelope; together with Memorial Scroll, medal extremely fine £120-160 Edward Henry Coase was born in Devonport, Devon, on 5 October 1896. He enlisted into the Royal Navy as a Boy 2nd Class on 28 March 1912 and was advanced to Boy 1st Class in August the same year. He entered the war serving on the battleship Centurion, on which he was promoted to Ordinary Seaman in October 1914 and Able Seaman in June 1915. He then served at Vivid I, November 1915-July 1916, before joining the gunboat Glowworm, based on Halcyon, July 1916-September 1918; Pembroke II, October 1918; Monitor 25, October 1918-May 1919, and Fox, June 1919-August 1919. Able Seaman Coase was killed on 25 August 1919 as a result of the blowing up of an ammunition lighter. On the night of 25 August 1919, the gunboats Glowworm and Cockchafer were proceeding down the Dvina River to relieve Cricket and Cicala as part of the advance guard on R.N. gunboats operating on the Dvina. As the Glowworm and Cockchafer neared Bereznik the watch on the Glowworm spotted a barge on fire mid river. The Mercantile Marine Reserve and Russian crew of Army barge NT326 ôEdinburghö had raked out the galley fire as usual before heading to their hammocks for the night. Closer to midnight two of the crew awoke to find the aft cabin ablaze. Unable to stem the flames some of the crew fled the barge in a small boat. The crew of the barge had good reason to flee the inferno as they knew what Commander Green onboard Glowworm did not, that the barge was being used to transport ammunition and was loaded with 70 tons of explosive. As Commander Green brought the Glowworm alongside, nose towards the blazing barge, the crew of the gunboat rushed with hoses to fire-stations on the fore-deck in preparation to put out the conflagration. Many of Glowworms crew not involved in fighting the fire crowded the fore-deck to watch the brilliant bonfire before them. As the crew of Glowworm began to fight the fire, the Cockchafer, some distance away, began to manoeuvre to approach the barge from another direction. A crowd had gathered ashore of men watching the spectacle. As the crowd watched in horror a huge wall of flame rose into the calm night sky. Soon after there was another explosion and several smaller ones after that. It is unknown how many of Glowworms crew died in the initial explosions but it now must have been apparent to Commander Green that he had brought his ship alongside a blazing ammunition barge. A few minutes later an enormous flash blanketed the countryside. Seconds later the deafening roar and shock wave of the explosion ripped through air sending debris up to a mile away. Slowly as those ashore began to regain their senses, hastily cobbled together rescue teams began to make their way towards Glowworm in whatever vessel they could find. As the rescue teams boarded Glowworm they could not believe the devastation that awaited them. The entire superstructure seemed to be scorched and bent, debris and what remained of the bodies of the crew lay everywhere. The fore-deck had suffered the most damage being closest to the explosion. All of the fire-fighting crews had been wiped out whilst manning their hoses. As rescuers came across wounded sailors they carried them to the relatively undamaged after-deck and lay them in rows for the medical staff to attend to. Commander Green was found on the bridge mortally wounded, surrounded by the bodies of other officers and sailors who had been killed outright in the explosion. He was evacuated to the hospital barge which moored alongside the smoking Glowworm but did not regain consciousness and died an hour later. In the meantime Cockchafer, under Commander Preston Thomas, had come to her stricken sister ships aid. She lit the ship with her searchlights to aid the rescue efforts whilst coming alongside. From the bridge of Cockchafer, Commander Thomas directed the rescue crews through a megaphone. The following day the full scale of the tragedy became apparent. Onboard Glowworm, 23 officers and men had been killed, and another 15 had been wounded. Additionally two M.M.R. men and two Russian seamen onboard a nearby ammunition barge had been killed by flying debris and three other M.M.R. men wounded. It was the largest single day loss of life suffered by the Royal Navy in North Russia 1918-19. The damage to Glowworm was significant. She was towed back to Archangel to be refitted and repaired and was able to make her way back to England under her own steam, but she was too worn out to continue service and was paid off almost as soon as she arrived back at Chatham on 18 November 1919 and was eventually scrapped in 1921. With copied service papers and research.
