1980 Honda 748cc CB750FRegistration no. JMT 467WFrame no. RC04-2118026 Engine no. RC04E-2117657After the iconic Honda SOHC 750 had taken the motorcycling world by storm, its replacement was a radical restyle, with a double overhead camshaft motor. Introduced in 1979, the new machine, also known as the KZ, featured twin front discs, Comstar wheels, and an extra 10 bhp over the SOHC K model. Acquired by the previous vendor in 2007, in need of cosmetic attention and some re-commissioning, 'JMT 467W' was treated to new paintwork, courtesy of Dream Machine (invoice on file), and a mechanical overhaul in January 2015 by RTR Motorcycles costing £1253.34 (invoice on file). It was used occasionally during 2015 but, due to work pressures, it has not been used since. Purchased by the current vendor in 2021 at the Bonhams Summer Sale (Lot 802), recommissioning commenced and was running during 2022 where the carburettors were balanced, however a fault occurred shortly after where it was discovered the clutch plates had stuck together. The clutch was stripped and cleaned and put back on the motorcycle but it hasn't been tested since but the engine does turn over still. A list of what the vendor carried out during the recommissioning is detailed below;•Petrol tank & seat rubbers replaced. Seat attachment points cleaned and repainted•Body Side covers rubbers•Starter clutch new roller kit fitted•Air / oil filters & oil drain sump bolt & washer replaced•4x spark plugs replaced•Battery replaced (trickle charger removed 28/01/2024 and negative connection disconnected)•Carburettor split into two but not fully disassembled before cleaning in the ultrasonic bath, covers top and bottom removed•Clutch cable, leaver & retaining pin replaced•Clutch assembly disassembled, cleaned & inspected (plates & springs above specified dimensions in the manual).

The Clive Wood MBE Collection1953 Ariel 998cc Square Four MKIIRegistration no. GVH 353Frame no. ES614Engine no. XJ602Designed by Edward Turner, creator of Triumph's legendary Speed Twin, the first Ariel Square Four appeared at the Olympia Motorcycle Show in 1930. Conceived as an overhead-camshaft 500, the model grew to 601cc before a total redesign saw it emerge as the Model 4G, with 995cc overhead-valve engine, in 1937. Anstey-link plunger rear suspension became an option in 1939 but would not be offered again until 1946, when a telescopic front fork replaced the previous girder type. An exercise in weight-shedding saw the cast-iron cylinder head and barrel replaced by alloy components for 1949, the revised model, now capable of 90mph-plus, being known as the Mark I. Introduced in 1953, the 'four pipe' MkII elevated the Square Four into the league of genuine 100mph motorcycles. Square Four production, along with that of all other Ariel four-strokes, ceased in 1959. To date, the innovative Ariel Square Four remains unique in motorcycling history; a true 'gentleman's motorcycle', this refined yet characterful machine retains an enthusiastic following and is highly prized by discerning enthusiasts.Last taxed in 1985, this Square Four is an older restoration offered for recommissioning or more extensive renovation (the engine turns over). The machine comes with some marque related literature; an original Owner's Guide; Draganfly Motorcycles spares catalogue; an old V5; and an old-style logbook (issued 1959) showing that it was attached to sidecar at that time.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 bidding.REQUEST A TRANSPORT QUOTEPlease click the link to request a transport quote from our recommended transport company, Moving Motorcycles.To request a UK or European shipping quote - Moving MotorcyclesTo request an International shipping quote - ShippioThis Lot will be auctioned on Sunday 21 April starting at 11am GMT.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A553 GALFrame no. *43F-002252*Engine no. *43F-002252*First launched in June 1983, the XT600 was introduced as an all-purpose enduro that could do the work commute during the week and off roading in the weekends.

A RARE PAIR OF ITALIAN WHITE MARBLE RELIEF PORTRAITS OF AN OTTOMAN SULTAN AND HIS WIFEATTRIBUTED TO ORAZIO MARINALI (VENETIAN 1643-1720), LATE 17TH / EARLY 18TH CENTURYa facing pair of oval portrait medallions of an Ottoman Sultan or famous commander, depicted smoking a hookah pipe and wearing a turban and an ermine lined jacket together with its companion his wife or Sultana with her right hand tucked inside her clothes, each in a carved pine frame with traces of gilding (2)13.5 x 9.8cmProvenanceParker & Morris: The Art of Decorating.Catalogue NoteOn stylistic and typological grounds, this unpublished pair of portrait reliefs is the work of a famous and prolific Vicentine (i.e. Venetian) sculptor, Orazio Marinali, who is famed for this particular sideline. It is derived from the Renaissance tradition of producing series of images of famous men - or ‘Worthies’ as they were dubbed in English - often in the form of bronze medallions.For centuries Venice, by means of its fleet, was occupied in trying to withstand the forces of the Ottoman Empire and its powerful navy, which culminated in the 16th and 17th centuries in two critical victories, almost a century apart: by sea the Battle of Lepanto 1571 and by land the Siege of Vienna (1683). It is therefore likely that these images depict leaders of the defeated hostile forces, either rulers or commanders of the hostile forces who had been crucial. They are probably taken from paintings or engravings of the respective periods.For the Battle of Lepanto these would be either the Sultan, Selim II, or Ali Pasha, Admiral of the Ottoman Fleet; or for the Siege of Vienna, the Grand Vizier, Kara Mustafa Pasha. The latter suffered an ignominious end, being beheaded in Belgrade on 25 December – Christmas Day! - on the orders of the Sultan, to whom his head was brought on a silver salver. This second resounding defeat by the forces of the Holy Roman Emperor, Leopold I, and John III Sobieski, King of Poland, marked the beginning of the end of Ottoman domination in eastern Europe.PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS LOT IS TO BE OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE.
