2000 Easy Rider M50 Millenium Monkey Bike Bike Year: 2000 Bike Make: Easy Rider Bike Model: M50 Millenium Monkey Bike Bike Reg No.: X571NYG Bike Frame No.: 1000177 Bike Engine No.: 100058 Bike Colour: Chrome Goodness knows where the inspiration came from for the name or the idea of a miniature motor bike but motorcycle genius Soichiro Honda`s original design, the CZ100 `Mini Bike`, still has an enthusiastic following, and an original example will now set you back a few thousand sovs. AKA the `Monkey Bike`, by which it was and will be forever known, the first of the line had a 49cc pushrod engine, rigid forks, single seat and 5`` wheels. Soon upgraded to the CZ50M, a sort of de-luxe version, with ohc engine from the step-thru C50 and tartan twin folding seat. Next up was the Z50A which had tele forks, 8`` wheels with knobblys, high level exhaust and you could have a red, blue or yellow colour scheme. That model then morphed into the Z50AK2 which was almost exactly the same and named, after its tank badges, the `Mini-Trail`. Ironically the Far East motorcycle industry has spent the last four decades cloning Mr Honda`s designs, some official others not, and there are many copies of the Monkey Bike available on the market today. Indeed the term has become somewhat generic now and can apply to any miniature motorcycle. The bike on offer would appear to be of Oriental origin branded Jincheng ``Easy Rider Monkey Bike`` and looks to be a very good replica of the Honda Z50AK2. A 2000 `Millennium Edition` it has only 98 miles on the odometer and looks to be in very good condition. It has a V5, together with expired MOT certificates to 2007 and is fitted with many extras. Ideal for mounting on the back of your motor home. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1926 Raleigh Model 14 Bike Year: 1926 Bike Make: Raleigh Bike Model: Model 14 Bike Reg No.: CF 6876 Bike Frame No.: 7751 Bike Engine No.: M1591 Bike Colour: Black The well known Nottingham bicycle manufacturer entered the motorcycle market in 1901 with motorcycle production continuing in a sporadic fashion throughout the pioneer period. During 1920 the company commenced the manufacture of a new in line flat twin, which they followed in 1922 with a range of single cylinder side valve models featuring either two or three speed gearboxes and belt or chain final drive. The new machines quickly established an enviable reputation for their reliability enhanced in 1924 by Hugh Gibson`s successful circuit of the British coast on a combination and Majorie Cottle`s reverse circuit of the same route on a solo. Production continued until 1933 when the company ceased motorcycle production to concentrate on their pedal powered products. This example of the 246cc side valve Model 14 dates from 1926. Equipped with a three speed gearbox and chain final drive it was purchased as a basket case by the vendor in 1987 who undertook its rebuild. The engine, gearbox and magneto were rebuilt as were the hubs, wheels and other cycle parts. The seat was recovered in leather and a new Dunlop Cord tyre was fitted to the rear wheel. New reverse levers were purchased. The frame, forks mudguards and other cycle parts were sandblasted and painted black and a period carbide lighting set was fitted. After completion in 1988 the bike, although a runner, has stood as a centre piece in the reception of an engineering works. It is offered with a buff logbook dating from 1945 and an old Swansea V5.

1960s Ducati Monza Bike Year: 1960s Bike Make: Ducati Bike Model: Monza Bike Reg No.: Un-Reg Bike Frame No.: T.B.A. Bike Engine No.: DM250 96114 Bike Colour: Red / Silver Another illustrious motorcycle manufacturer whose business began by producing clip-on bike engines. And they don`t come much more illustrious than the mighty Ducati concern, commencing in 1950 offering such a product to a transport hungry market. Taglioni`s desirable exotic designs, big thundering race bred twins and exquisite singles grew from these humble beginnings and continue to add to the firm`s prestige to the present day. Early models from the mid sixties suffered a little from cheap finishing issues and maybe undeservedly questionable electrics, perhaps if used in the UK climate at any rate, but overall fine handling and power delivery through 5 speed transmissions were attractions difficult to resist by the discerning enthusiast. Some versions in Giugiaro`s unpopular, squarer, `Euro` trim may now represent the best value for money with no compromise of performance, if you are not fussy about style. Models with the Desmo valve gear beloved of Ducati still command a premium, although little or no improvement in performance was apparent on the smaller models if compared to some of the spring valve variants. For some the 350 Desmo is the best of the lightweight bunch, modern 12v electronics providing improvements to ignition and lighting on most models, particularly this pint size performer, the basis of many race bikes. This Ducati is believed to be a Mk111 Monza 250cc single from the mid-sixties, although no documents are to hand at present. Largely complete, but missing seat and fuel tank, the bike is offered at a low estimate to allow the new owner to complete a very worthwhile restoration, which could result in a most desirable road bike or race replica suitable for track day or parade duties.

1958 BSA B33 Bike Year: 1958 Bike Make: BSA Bike Model: B33 Bike Reg No.: YPX 896 Bike Frame No.: FB31-1168 Bike Engine No.: GB33-322 Bike Colour: Red / Black The BSA 350cc B31 and B33 500 cc workhorses originated in immediate post-war years with contemporary modern styling, albeit owing much of their engineering to pre-war progenitors. Always appreciated for their solid and reliable performance these popular models were in the BSA catalogue right up to the end of the fifties, when twins became the fashion and the `thumper` was seen by the motorcyclist as an anachronism, apart that is from the sidecar-lugging fraternity who hadn`t yet got over the demise of rigid frames and girder forks. The motorcyclist himself by this time was almost an anachronism, but most appreciated the simplicity, reliability, economy, power and handling of the last of the big everyday Beesa singles which by 1959 had the benefit of well developed swing arm frame, telescopic forks large fuel tank and copious dual seat. Also by then a fully enclosed rear chaincase, headlamp nacelle, alternator electrics and more effective brakes were standard. As ever the Great British Motorcycle Industry had got it right. Then they stopped making them! This particular B33, dating from the penultimate year of full production, appears to be very original and correct in it`s red/black livery, and has a useful rear carrier fitted. The bike was first registered in West Sussex and spent most of it`s life in the area before being purchased from a farm in Hastings by the vendor in 1994. However restoration never got under way and YPX 968 has been in dry storage since. Swansea V5 plus original buff log book and a 1990 MOT certificate are with the machine, which is a very suitable case for complete rebuild. All parts being freely available from numerous BSA suppliers the machine will repay the effort required as these bikes are much sought after in today`s market.

1978 Bultaco Alpina Bike Year: 1978 Bike Make: Bultaco Bike Model: Alpina Bike Reg No.: EU-Reg Bike Frame No.: JB21300014 Bike Engine No.: JM21300014 Bike Colour: Red / Black The first Alpina was introduced during 1971 in response to requests from the States for a "woods" bike that retained the agility of the Sherpa trials model but offered a higher degree of comfort, greater range and better on road performance. The first Alpina model retained the well proven Sherpa engine fitted with Matador gear ratios to improve the machines overall performance. The frame was clearly derived from the Sherpa`s but benefitted from revised geometry and changes to the suspension settings better suited to its intended role. A larger capacity fuel tank resulted in a greater range and a more comfortable seat was fitted. The first examples were fitted with a 250cc capacity engine, but were quickly followed by 125, 175 and 350cc versions. The basic design of the Alpina remained largely unchanged throughout its production life filling a niche between the all out enduro machine and the pure trials bike, although the fittings changed with the fibreglass fuel tank and seat unit eventually being replaced by an alloy example and dual seat, alloy mudguards gave way to plastic examples and revisions introduced to the Sherpa power plant and frame were adopted by the Alpina. The example offered is one of the last series of machines built between 1977 and 1979 and has been restored to an excellent standard throughout. The vendor converted the electrical system to 12 volt operation during the restoration and informs us that the machine is currently registered in Spain.

1972 Norton Commando Bike Year: 1972 Bike Make: Norton Bike Model: Commando Bike Reg No.: EJH 31K Bike Frame No.: 200936 Bike Engine No.: 200936 Bike Colour: Red / Black Norton unveiled the Commando at the Earls Court Show in September 1967. The new model was powered by a revised version of the well regarded 750 Atlas with the cylinders slightly inclined to the front. Dr Stefan Bauer had joined Norton early in 1967 tasked with the design of the new twin and he, assisted by Bernard Hooper and Bob Trigg, sought to eliminate the major flaw inherent in the design of high performance parallel twins-vibration. Their solution involved isolating the engine and gearbox from the main frame assembly with three rubber mountings, known as the Isolastic system, thus allowing the engine to merrily shake away without the vibrations being transmitted to the rider. When production examples of the first "Fastback" machines became available to magazines for test in 1968 they were found to be endowed with exceptional performance and handling of the highest standard, the "Motor Cycle" stating that the "ingenious frame.did in fact , virtually eliminate the effects of high-frequency vibration". The "Fastback" model was quickly joined by a more traditionally styled version, the S with a high level exhaust system, followed by the Roadster with low pipes, the Hi-Rider, an unfortunate chopperesque machine with ape hanger bars and a high backed seat and the Interstate which introduced a new disc front brake. The example offered, dating from 1972 was completely restored during 2007 both mechanically and cosmetically and has only covered 50 miles since. The engine, which is to the standard state of tune and not a "Combat example", will require running in prior to enthusiastic use. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1956 BSA B31 Bike Year: 1956 Bike Make: BSA Bike Model: B31 Bike Reg No.: 987 YUB Bike Frame No.: EB311285 Bike Engine No.: BB312276 Bike Colour: Black Few machines epitomise the concept of the traditional post war British single better than the BSA B31. The over head valve single was capable of returning over 100 miles to the gallon if handled with a little restraint or, if handled with a degree of enthusiasm, was capable in the words of "The Motor Cycle" road test carried out in 1956 "of maintaining sufficiently fast average speeds to permit large daily mileages to be covered without boredom. Under average conditions use of half throttle gave an indicated speed of 60 to 65mph in top gear". The comfort afforded by the pivoted fork frame and telescopic forks was found to be very good "even when a period of several hours was spent awheel" and "the dual seat was long enough for two medium size riders". The example offered, dating from the year that the road test quoted from above was carried out, was restored during 2010, at which time all the engine internals were, according to the vendor, renewed. It is described as running "perfectly" and is accompanied by a number of invoices for parts used during the restoration and a Swansea V5C. Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

1982 Suzuki GSX 1000 S Katana Bike Year: 1982 Bike Make: Suzuki Bike Model: GSX 1000 S Katana Bike Reg No.: NOP360X Bike Frame No.: GS100X500364 Bike Engine No.: 100899 Bike Colour: Black / Silver Suzuki ended the nineteen seventies in a strong position in respect of the superbike market. The GS1000 maintained its position as one of the most desirable machines in its class with a reputation for good handling and excellent performance and the recently introduced GSX1100E had quickly established itself as the ultimate musclebike, however Suzuki recognised that their rivals would not allow their position to go unchallenged for long. As a consequence Suzuki commissioned a German design consultancy, Target Design, to evolve a design that would maintain the company`s position at the head of the superbike field. The design that emerged, first seen by the public at the 1980 Cologne Show as a concept, has rightfully come to be regarded as one of the landmark machines in motorcycle history. Known as the Katana it featured a half fairing, fuel tank and seat unit designed with the aid of a wind tunnel that sought to combine the motorcycle and rider into one aerodynamically efficient package and which also looked like no other machine available. The machine was powered by the double overhead cam, four cylinder unit. The 1000cc variants of the big "Kat" were essentially homologation specials built to compete in the States and are consequently somewhat rarer than the 1100cc machines with approximately 200 being built. This example has, according to the vendor been completely stripped and rebuilt having previously been the subject of a "cosmetic" write off. The engine was blue printed at the time of the rebuild and the vendor informs us that the machine rides "perfectly". It is offered with Swansea V5C and an expired MOT certificate.

Honda CZ100 Bike Make: Honda Bike Model: CZ100 Bike Reg No.: BDV369B Bike Frame No.: 500235 Bike Engine No.: C100E-63890 Bike Colour: Red The little 49cc over head valve single cylinder engine and gearbox unit that was introduced with the C100 Cub in 1958 provided the power unit for a variety of ultra-lightweight machines produced by Honda, the most distinctive of which was and remains the "Monkey Bike. The concept of the "mini motorcycle" was not a new one, with machines such as the Corgi in the UK and the Mustang in the States achieving varying degrees of popularity. With the introduction of the Monkey Bike, Honda did with the mini bike concept what they were to do so well in other areas of motorcycle design, they took an idea and refined it to the point where it became accessible to non motorcyclists. The C100 power unit was both refined and reliable requiring little in the way of maintenance and was housed in a simple rigid frame with unsprung forks riding on five inch diameter wheels. A thickly padded single seat provided adequate comfort for the short trips the machine was intended to undertake and a simple electrical system was fitted, whilst the provision of folding handlebars meant that the little machine could be tucked away when not in use. Supported by an extensive dealer network the little machine quickly gained a healthy following being used as a tender to caravans and yachts, a leisure vehicle in its own right, usable by children aged 4 or 5 to 80 and as a paddock bike, quickly becoming as much a part of the motorsport landscape as Bell Helmets, Castrol R and Heuer watches. This well presented, original example of the CZ100 has been housed in a private collection and is said to have good, red paintwork and sound brightwork.

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.

1963 Alfa Romeo 2600 Sprint Car Year: 1963 Car Manufacturer: Alfa Romeo Car Model: 2600 Sprint Car Reg No.: 838 CLJ Car Chassis No.: AR821559 Car Colour: Red Introduced at the 1962 Geneva Salon, the Alfa Romeo 106-series was conceived as the Milanese manufacturer`s flagship range. Available in Berlina, Sprint and Spider guises, it was based on a reworked / elongated 102-series platform featuring all-round coil-sprung suspension and four-wheel disc brakes (though, some early cars had drums to the rear). Harking back to Alfa`s illustrious Grand Prix past, it was powered by a bespoke 2584cc DOHC straight-six engine. Credited with some 145bhp and 156lbft of torque, this monolithic all-alloy unit drove the rear wheels via a five-speed synchromesh manual gearbox. Arguably the best-looking variant, the two-door Sprint coupe was styled by newly appointed Carrozeria Bertone design chief, Giorgetto Giugiaro. Despite a reputed top speed of 125mph and spirited acceleration to match, the model was not as overtly sporting as it name implied. More of a sophisticated and refined Gran Turismo car instead, few rivals (and no other contemporary Alfa) could match its ability to seat four in comfort over long journeys at high speeds. Although, the Sprint outsold the Berlina and Spider, just 6,699 are thought to have been made during its six-year production life. Finished in Red with Tan hide upholstery, this particular example is understood to have been professionally converted to right-hand drive when new by Ruddspeed Engineering, who were the UK`s Alfa Romeo import agents at the time. The coupe has enjoyed long term ownership and was treated to a major restoration some years ago. Along the way, the three original Solex carburetters have been replaced by a set of 45DCOE Webers that not only look even more impressive, but are also understood to have added a further level of power. `838 CLJ` has recently enjoyed a full engine tune and extensive service and is said by the vendor to be "quick, responsive and fun to drive". Overall, he currently regards the bodywork, interior trim and engine as "excellent" and the paintwork as "very good". Click Here to view this item on www.i-bidder.com

2004 Volkswagen Beetle Cabriolet Car Year: 2004 Car Manufacturer: Volkswagen Car Model: Beetle Cabriolet Car Reg No.: RG53FYZ Car Chassis No.: WVWZZZ1YZ4M325601 Car Colour: Blue Following positive public reaction to Volkswagen`s retro-themed Concept 1, the similarly-styled but quaintly entitled `VW New Beetle` went on sale in 1998. Though outwardly inspired by Dr Porsche`s original people`s car, the layout of the newcomer`s Golf-based mechanicals could hardly have been more different, with a front-mounted engine driving the front wheels rather than a rear-placed one powering the back ones. Of course `dubbers` like to customise, and even VW itself was quick to create some special editions of the model. `RG53 FYZ` is certainly special, but the work of a group of independent experts rather than the manufacturer. Conceived by Oxford Edition and using one of their wives` Aquarius Blue Cabriolets as a base, it was given a thorough mechanical going over by renowned VW/Audi tuners, APS of Brackley. The original engine was ousted in favour of an Audi S3 1.8T unit that was then treated to APS stage 1 software, 3 inch downpipe, and cat-less 3 inch exhaust system exiting where the fog and reverse lights had once been - the output was around 270bhp. The unit drives through a six-speed SEAT Cupra R gearbox to a Quaife limited slip differential. The Beetle sits on colour-keyed 19 inch Techart five spoke alloys behind which custom hubs are braked by Porsche Cayenne callipers and ECS discs. The suspension is lowered and equipped with KW coil-overs. Outside, the eye-catching speedster-style bodywork has been smoothed and blended, the wheel arched pulled, and all glass apart from the windscreen removed along with the hood and its mechanism. The area behind the Recaro bucket seats is topped off with a bespoke panel especially created by Shapecraft. The reworked interior includes an R32 leather steering wheel, TT Quattro Sport gear knob and weighted quickshift, and has been retrimmed in Red leather. A unique creation of enormous character.

1972 Alfa Romeo 2000 GTV Car Year: 1972 Car Manufacturer: Alfa Romeo Car Model: 2000 GTV Car Reg No.: CCD555L Car Chassis No.: 2411880 Car Colour: Red / Yellow The pretty 105/115 Series two-door Coupes made in various specifications by Alfa Romeo from 1963 to 1977 were penned by Giorgetto Giugiaro as one of his first projects for Bertone. Power came from Alfa`s ubiquitous four-cylinder, all-alloy, twin-cam engine which, over the years, was available in a range of capacities from 1290cc to 1962cc. The engine was mated to a slick five-speed gearbox. Suspension was by wishbones and coil springs at the front and coil-sprung live axle at the rear. Braking was by discs all round and steering by recirculating ball. The first model to be introduced was the Giulia Sprint GT of 1963, which was powered by a 1570cc version of the sonorous twin-cam unit. The ensuing Giulia Sprint GT Veloce produced from 1965 to 1967 was very similar, and visually distinguishable only by minor modifications to the body and interior. By a succession of engine enlargements, the model evolved into the 1750 GTV of 1967 and the 1962cc, 150bhp 2000 GTV unveiled in 1971. Some 37,459 of the latter were created during its six-year production run. This right-hand drive example was reportedly transformed into a Touring Car racer by Peter Smart of marque specialist Thames Motor Company, Dorset during 2010/2011. The shell was stripped, refurbished and resprayed Red with a Yellow nose. The Weber-fed competition engine is still barely run-in and the car itself has only been subjected to one test day since the restoration/conversion was completed; where it is understood to have performed faultlessly. Its specification includes: FIA-approved roll bar; fire extinguisher; racing seat and belts; period Minilite wheels; laminated screen and Perspex rear and side windows. Road registered, taxed until December 31st and complete with FIA papers, this very pretty competition car is apparently eligible for the Tour Auto not to mention several historic championships in the UK.
