Lot 509

c.1973 Moto Morini ZetaZetaFrame no. ZZ42055Engine no. P/4Moto Morini founder Alfonso Morini split from MM in 1937, setting up a foundry in Bologna. Post-WW2 he returned to motorcycle manufacture, commencing with a 125cc two-stroke and then a similar-sized SOHC four-stroke single. Within a few years the range would consist of four-strokes only. One of the smallest machines in Moto Morini's range at the time of its introduction in 1963, the 50cc overhead-valve-engined Corsarino (little racer) was intended to give youngsters an introduction to 'real' motorcycling. The diminutive Corsarino proved popular despite being relatively expensive; the fact that it was a four-stroke in a market sector dominated by two-strokes no doubt enhancing its appeal. Its engine was also used for the ZetaZeta sports roadster, though the design of this example's power unit is quite different. We are advised that the engine's bottom-end has been modified by Giancarlo Morbidelli, and that this machine may be a prototype.

c.1965 Italjet 49cc Sports RoadsterFrame no. 25833Engine no. unable to locateItaljet was founded in 1959 by ex-Italian road-race champion Leopoldo Tartarini, a gifted engineer and designer whose many collaborations with Ducati include styling the Darmah range of v-twins. Over the years Italjet used proprietary engines from numerous suppliers including Minarelli, CZ, MZ, Yamaha, and Triumph. Almost every conceivable type of motorcycle was made, including competition and schoolboy models and a succession of stylish scooters. In the 1990s, Italjet launched the Dragster, Formula and Velocifero scooters, and in 1998 an Italjet Formula was exhibited as part of The Art of the Motorcycle exhibition at the Guggenheim Museum of Modern Art in New York City. Apparently original and complete, this rare early Minarelli-engined Italjet is offered for restoration (it should be noted that the carburettor float chamber is damaged).

c.1952 Capriolo 75cc SportFrame no. 08239Engine no. 07465Named after the roe deer, the Capriolo marque emerged in 1948 from the ashes of the giant Caproni group, formerly one of Italy's largest manufacturing concerns. Between the world wars, Caproni manufactured mostly bombers and light transport aircraft, and only turned to motorcycle production after WW2. The firm commenced two-wheeled production with a 50cc ultra-lightweight before swiftly moving on to a 75cc model, the Capriolo 75, which was notable for its use of a pressed-steel frame and an unusual four-stroke engine of the overhead 'face cam' type, which also featured a longitudinal (rather than transverse) crankshaft. Sports versions won their class in the 1954 Milan-Taranto and 1955 Giro Motociclistico d'Italia, proving the effectiveness of this seemingly eccentric design. A type rarely seen outside its native Italy, this incomplete Capriolo 75 is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed.

c.1953 Aermacchi 125NFrame no. 12517886Engine no. illegibleA household name among motorcyclists thanks to its heroic achievement of producing the most highly developed and successful overhead-valve racing single ever, Aermacchi was a relative latecomer to motorcycle manufacture, building its first in the late 1940s. Designed by Lino Tonti, previously with Benelli, the 125 was a scooter-like machine with open frame, which was powered by a 123cc two-stroke engine that was mounted horizontally and pivoted with the rear suspension. Unlike most scooters, the Aermacchi used 17' wheels, so handled more like a conventional motorcycle. Fuel was carried in a tank under the seat, the forward compartment being intended for tools or luggage. By 1953 there were three versions on offer: the base model U, deluxe N and M sports roadster, the latter boasting a fuel tank in the conventional motorcycle position. This rare early Aermacchi is offered for restoration and sold strictly as viewed.

c.1956 CM Francolino 175Frame no. CM814Engine no. CM175FS 814CM was founded in Bologna in 1930 by rider/engineers Oreste Drusiani (whose son Alfonso would later find fame with Mondial) and Mario Cavedagna. Powered by overhead-valve and overhead-camshaft engines of various capacities up to 500cc, CM's motorcycles soon gained a reputation for both indestructibility and speed, its 'cammy' 350 ridden successfully by Guglielmo Sandri in the mid-1930s being particularly noteworthy. The company kept faith with the four-stroke engine in the immediately post-war years and then in 1949 introduced the first of a range of two-strokes, the ultimate expression of which was a 250cc twin. But the company was not yet done with four-stroke models, launching the overhead-cam Francolino 175 sports roadster in 1956. Belatedly climbing aboard the scooter bandwagon in 1958, the firm had ceased production by the decade's end. This exquisite CM Francolino had already been restored when acquired for the Morbidelli Museum.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

c.1979 Benelli 254 QuattroFrame no. BH 11718Engine no. BH 1842Revitalised following its take-over by Argentine industrialist Alejandro de Tomaso, Benelli launched a range of new four- and six-cylinder sports bikes in the 1970s. Smallest of the range was the 254 (actually 231cc) quarter-litre roadster, its name deriving from '250cc/four cylinders'. When introduced in 1976, the 254 was one of the most expensive 250s on sale anywhere, but then its specification did include cast alloy wheels, Brembo disc brakes, and an electric starter. Stunningly styled and built like a watch, the high-revving lightweight had 27.8bhp on tap, which was good enough for a top speed of over 90mph (Motorcycle Mechanics achieved a best of 94.1mph at MIRA). A couple of years later the model was restyled, gaining a small handlebar fairing and some new colour schemes. Apparently original and correct, this example currently displays a total of 7,671km (4,767 miles) on the odometer. There are no documents with this Lot.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1951 FB Mondial 125cc 4T SportFrame no. 1127Engine no. 1127Few marques have achieved so fine a competition record in so short a time as FB Mondial. FB Mondial was founded in the aftermath of WW2 by the Boselli family, whose first venture into powered transport had been with the FB (Fratelli Boselli) three-wheeled delivery van in the 1930s. The name 'Mondial' first appeared on a motorcycle in 1948, when the Boselli brothers introduced a revolutionary double-overhead-camshaft 125cc racer. Mondial's miniature masterpiece duly brought the Bologna manufacturer its first World Championship the following year and proved equally dominant in 1950 and '51. After a relatively lean spell, Mondial returned to Grand Prix glory in 1957, taking both the 125cc and 250cc World Championships. Not surprisingly, Mondial's passion for racing rubbed off on its road range, which was exquisitely engineered and beautifully constructed in a manner unmistakably Italian. The 125cc FB Mondial 4T sports roadster offered here is an older restoration by an Italian specialist. A superb acquisition for any collection and a welcome entry in next year's Moto Giro d'Italia, the machine is offered with an old Italian registration document (1963) and ACI papers.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1954 MV Agusta 175cc CS Sport 'Disco Volante'Frame no. 404353/36Engine no. 450204SS•Iconic MV model•Earles fork version•One 'push' mile since restoration by a specialist'The single-cam 175, introduced in 1952 and put into production in 1954, was of fundamental importance to the technical, commercial and sporting evolution of the marque. From an engineering point of view, the 175 CS was important because it was the first 4-stroke MV to go into volume production...' – Colombo & Patrignani, MV Agusta.Having commenced motorcycle production late in 1945 with a 98cc two-stroke, Meccanica Verghera (MV) introduced its first production four-strokes, the single-cylinder 175 CST and CSTL, at the Milan Show in 1952, the newcomers' advanced overhead-cam, unitary construction engine setting them apart from most of the opposition. Their cycle parts too were state-of-the-art, consisting of a duplex loop frame incorporating the engine as a stressed member, oil-damped telescopic front fork, swinging-arm rear suspension, and full-width alloy hubs. A year later the 175 CS Sport arrived featuring an engine in a higher state of tune that increased maximum power to 11bhp at 6,700rpm and pushed top speed to 117km/h (73mph). Alternative versions with either a race-developed Earles-type leading-link fork (suggested by MV's Grand Prix rider, Les Graham) or conventional telescopics were offered. It was not just new sports roadster's cutting-edge technical specification that set the public's pulse racing but also its styling, for the model featured a sculpted fuel tank, almost circular when viewed from above, that soon gained it the popular sobriquet 'Disco Volante' (Flying Saucer). The ultimate development of the line arrived in 1955 in the shape of the 175 CS Super Sport, which came with 18bhp on tap and a top speed of around 135km/h (85mph). Not surprisingly, the 175 CS Sport Disco Volante was soon MV's best seller. Production of these highly successful models continued until 1958. This Disco Volante has covered only one 'push' mile since being restored by a specialist. The machine is offered with an old Italian registration document issued Pesaro in 1966.

1957 Laverda 100 Sport Bialbero Production Racing MotorcycleFrame no. 571530Engine no. obscuredLaverda's first product, the 75cc four-stroke Motoleggera (lightweight motorcycle) helped meet the unprecedented upsurge in demand for basic motorised transport, and modified versions were soon winning their class in the long-distance road races popular at the time. In 1951, Laverda's new 'MT' (Milan-Taranto) sports model crushed the opposition, filling the top five positions in the 75cc category while in 1953 there were 75cc-class wins in the Moto Giro d'Italia and Milan-Taranto again. In 1954 the new 98cc '100 MT' scored a debut win in the Giro and occupied six out of the first seven places in the Milan-Taranto's 100cc category, victory going to Laverda rider Giovanni Larquier. The engine of this Laverda 100 Sport has been modified by Giancarlo Morbidelli to incorporate twin overhead camshafts (the valves were originally opened via pushrods). The project took six months to complete and was finished just in time for the 1992 Moto Giro d'Italia. Giancarlo finished the six-day 1,800-kilometre event, run in rally format, and won the stage from Bellaggio to Modena. Restored in the Morbidelli Museum's workshop, the machine is offered with paperwork, correspondence, articles and certificates relating to Giancarlo Morbidelli's successful participation in the 1992 Moto Giro.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1957 Laverda 100 Sport Production Racing MotorcycleFrame no. 543455Engine no. 571530 SFounded in 1873, Laverda started out making farm machinery, only turning to motorcycle manufacture in the immediate aftermath of WW2. Its first product, the 75cc four-stroke Motoleggera (lightweight motorcycle) helped meet the unprecedented upsurge in demand for basic motorised transport, and modified versions were soon winning their class in the long-distance road races popular at the time. Foremost of these was the famous Milan-Taranto, which Laverda first entered in 1950. That first venture ended in retirement for the factory's single entry but the following year all four machines entered finished the race. The following year Laverda's new 'MT' (Milan-Taranto) sports model crushed the opposition, filling the top five positions in the 75cc category while in 1953 there were 75cc-class wins in the Giro d'Italia and Milan-Taranto again. In 1954 the new 98cc '100 MT' scored a debut win in the Giro and occupied six out of the first seven places in the Milan-Taranto's 100cc category, victory going to Laverda rider Giovanni Larquier. This Laverda 100 Sport has been signed on the fuel tank by Primo Zanzani, the well-known rider and race engineer who worked with both the Laverda and Motobi racing departments, and who also designed and built racing frames, brakes, etc. Restored in the Morbidelli Museum's workshop, the machine is offered with an original spare parts list.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

A four-speed model, this Laverda 75 Sport was formerly ridden by Benito Boiani, a friend of Giancarlo Morbidelli, who is one of a trio of riders (including Giancarlo) pictured with their machines in 1956 (photograph on file). Presented in restored condition, the machine also comes with some other photographs, some marque-related literature, and an old Italian registration document (issued 1958).Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

c.1950 Linto 75cc Bialbero Racing MotorcycleFrame no. 15005Engine no. 0752•Unique creation by Lino Tonti•Raced in period by Massimo Pasolini•Restored by a specialistThe celebrated Italian motorcycle engineer Lino Tonti is best remembered for his Aermacchi-based Linto 500cc Grand Prix racer of the late1960s/early 1970s, the engine of which comprised two Ala D'Oro 250 top ends on a common crankcase. Most textbooks date Tonti's activities as a motorcycle constructor in his own right from this point - 1969 - yet the existence of the unique machine offered here shows that his first racing motorcycle was built much earlier. Tonti's first job was at Benelli, where he worked on their supercharged four-cylinder 250 racer of 1939. Following a spell with Aermacchi after WW2, he went to work for FB Mondial in 1957, helping them break MV's dominance of Grand Prix racing's lightweight classes that year. Tonti's next job was running Bianchi's racing and development department, for whom he designed a series of double-overhead-camshaft twins for the 250, 350, and 500 classes. After Bianchi's closure in the mid-1960s, Tonti moved to Moto Guzzi, developing its Giulio Carcano-designed v-twin around an entirely new frame, a move that transformed the big Guzzi from capable tourer into a proper sports bike. The 75cc class was an important one in Italy during the 1950s and 1960, with most of the Italian manufacturers offering machines in this capacity. It was also an important racing category, particularly in the long-distance road races of the era such as Milan-Taranto and the Moto Giro d'Italia. Looking every inch the 'tool room special'. Tonti's unique creation is powered by a single-cylinder four-stroke engine with inclined cylinder and chain-driven twin overhead camshafts, which is mounted in a tubular spine-type chassis featuring a leading-link front fork and swinging-arm rear suspension. The Linto's rider was Massimo Pasolini, who raced it in national events including the Circuito di Riccione and Circuito di Forli, winning the latter in 1950 at an average speed of 75km/h (47.2mph). Copies of period photographs are on file, including one of Linto Tonti lifting the diminutive machine off the ground! This - almost certainly - first Linto was tracked down by Giancarlo Morbidelli with the assistance of Mr Augusto Farnetti, one of the foremost experts in historic Italian motorcycles. Restored by a specialist, it represents a wonderful opportunity to own a unique piece of Italian motorcycle-racing history.

1956 Capriolo 75cc SportFrame no. none visibleEngine no. 24189•Rare model•Unusual engine design•An older restoration by a specialistNamed after the roe deer, the Capriolo marque emerged in 1948 from the ashes of the giant Caproni group, formerly one of Italy's largest manufacturing concerns. Caproni had been founded in the first decade of the 20th Century as an aircraft manufacturer. Based in Taliedo, a suburb of Milan, Caproni made the first aircraft of Italian manufacture in 1911 and during World War I produced a series of successful heavy bombers used by the Allied air forces. Between the world wars, Caproni manufactured mostly bombers and light transport aircraft, and only turned to motorcycle production after WW2. The firm commenced two-wheeled production with a 50cc ultra-lightweight before swiftly moving on to a 75cc model, the Capriolo 75, which was notable for its use of a pressed-steel frame and an unusual four-stroke engine of the overhead 'face cam' type, which also featured a longitudinal (rather than transverse) crankshaft. Sports versions won their class in the 1954 Milan-Taranto and 1955 Giro Motociclistico d'Italia, proving the effectiveness of this seemingly eccentric design.At the Milan Show in November 1953, Capriolo launched the 'Cento 50', one of the very few Italian motorcycles to be powered by a BMW-style horizontally opposed engine. This was followed, in 1955, by the more conventional Capriolo 125, which featured a single-cylinder overhead-camshaft engine, the 'face cam' type having been temporarily dropped. When engineer Giovanni Caproni died in 1957, the company was reorganised and adopted the 'Aeromere' name, a shortened form of 'Aero Meccanica Regionale'. Its motorcycles continued to be badged as 'Capriolo' until production ceased in 1963.A type rarely seen outside its native Italy, this charming Capriolo 75 Sport had been restored by a specialist prior to its acquisition for the Morbidelli Museum. Presented in beautiful condition, this rare machine is offered with an operating and maintenance manual (in Italian), a selection of photographs, and some marque-related literature (also in Italian).Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

c.1956 Moto Morini 175cc Settebello Racing MotorcycleFrame no. L15113Engine no. L15113Moto Morini founder Alfonso Morini split from MM in 1937, setting up a foundry in Bologna. Post-WW2 he returned to motorcycle manufacture, commencing with a 125cc two-stroke and then a similar-sized overhead-camshaft four-stroke single. The company was active in racing right from the start, winning the Italian national 125 championship in 1949. Although never a Grand Prix category, the 175cc class was an important one in Continental Europe. Introduced for the 1954 model year, the Moto Morini Settebello (Seven of Diamonds) was a high-performance sports roadster that commenced a run of models named after card games. Although intended for production-class racing, the Settebello was sold with full road equipment and could be distinguished from Morini's other 175s by its larger cylinder head containing hairpin valve springs (all the rest used coils). Also offered alongside the less-exotic family members was an out-and-out racer, the twin-overhead-camshaft Rebello, which was one of the most advanced designs available when introduced in 1955. This Moto Morini is of a type used by future World Champion Giacomo Agostini in his first mountain races such as Bologna-San Luca and Trento-Bondone. An older restoration, it would make a superb acquisition for any collection and an ideal mount for next year's Moto Giro d'Italia.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1958 Moto Morini 175cc Settebello Racing MotorcycleFrame no. A28416Engine no. not visibleMoto Morini founder Alfonso Morini split from MM in 1937, setting up a foundry in Bologna. Post-WW2 he returned to motorcycle manufacture, commencing with a 125cc two-stroke and then a similar-sized overhead-camshaft four-stroke single. The company was active in racing right from the start, winning the Italian national 125 championship in 1949. Although never a Grand Prix category, the 175cc class was an important one in Continental Europe. Introduced for the 1954 model year, the Moto Morini Settebello (Seven of Diamonds) was a high-performance sports roadster that commenced a run of models named after card games. Although intended for production-class racing, the Settebello was sold with full road equipment and could be distinguished from Morini's other 175s by its larger cylinder head containing hairpin valve springs (all the rest used coils). GP rider Angelo Bergamonti helped in developing the Settebello for racing. Following the budget-priced Biscola (trumps) the last of Morini's card game-themed 175s was the Tresette (Three Sevens), which was newly introduced for 1958 together with the sporting Tresette Sprint. There was also an out-and-out racer, the twin-overhead-camshaft Rebello, which was one of the most advanced designs available when introduced in 1955. This Moto Morini Settebello racer is an older restoration. The machine is offered with ACI paperwork and an old Italian registration document issued in 1976.

1955 AWO/Simson 250cc Racing MotorcycleFrame no. unable to locateEngine no. 1009Along with MZ, Simson was owned by the East German (DDR) government. Post-WW2, motorcycle production resumed in 1952 at the former Simson-Supra car factory with a range of 250cc four-strokes sold under the AWO brand name. Renamed Simson, the firm concentrated on lightweight motorcycles of less than 100cc from the 1960s onwards, leaving the larger-capacity classes to MZ. Its first introduction - the 247cc AWO 425 - was, not surprisingly, BMW influenced, being an overhead-valve single with inline crankshaft and four-speed shaft-drive transmission, while the cycle parts comprised a tubular cradle frame equipped with telescopic front fork, plunger rear suspension and 180mm diameter brakes on both wheels. Although the first racing version kept to the original's OHV architecture, subsequent developments featured single-overhead and twin-overhead-camshaft engines with varying methods of valve actuation. These racing developments of the AWO 425 enjoyed considerable domestic success, taking the DDR National Road Racing Championship in 1953, '54 and '55, a state of affairs that led to the introduction of a sports version for the road: the 425S. This 250cc AWO racer has a twin-overhead-cam engine with the camshafts driven by chain. A beautiful older restoration, this rare Eastern Bloc racing motorcycle is offered with technical information and photocopied literature relating to the marque (all in German).Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

c.1956 CM 175cc Production Racing MotorcycleFrame no. CMA1286Engine no. SCM A1269CM was founded in Bologna in 1930 by rider/engineers Oreste Drusiani (whose son Alfonso would later find fame with Mondial) and Mario Cavedagna. Powered by overhead-valve and overhead-camshaft engines of various capacities up to 500cc, CM's motorcycles soon gained a reputation for both indestructibility and speed, its 'cammy' 350 ridden successfully by Guglielmo Sandri in the mid-1930s being particularly noteworthy. The company kept faith with the four-stroke engine in the immediately post-war years and then in 1949 introduced the first of a range of two-strokes, the ultimate expression of which was a 250cc twin. But the company was not yet done with four-stroke models, launching the overhead-cam Francolino 175 sports roadster in 1956. Belatedly climbing aboard the scooter bandwagon in 1958, the firm had ceased production by the decade's end. An older restoration by the Morbidelli Museum, now somewhat deteriorated, this two-stroke CM is presented in competizione specification typical of lightweight machines prepared for the long-distance road races of their day such as Milan-Taranto and the Moto Giro d'Italia. In this specification its top speed would have been in the region of 130-135km/h (80-84mph).

c.1955 Motom 50cc CorsaFrame no. over-paintedEngine no. 5A 1006Founded in Italy in 1945 and active until the early 1970s, Motom was unusual among European manufacturers of mopeds and ultra-lightweight motorcycles in preferring the four-stroke engine rather than the ubiquitous two-stroke. The first Motom motorcycle debuted at the 1947 Geneva Salon and immediately generated an enthusiastic following on account of its sparkling performance and exceptional fuel econmoy. Pressed-steel spine frames were another Motom trademark although, as time progressed, models with tubular frames were introduced and proprietary Peugeot and Zündapp two-stroke engines adopted. Following successful spells with Gilera and then MV Agusta, renowned racing engineer Piero Remor joined Motom in 1953, helping the company develop the successful 98T model. Production of Motom motorcycles ceased in 1971. This restored Motom sports moped is presented in competizione specification as it would have been for contemporary long-distance road races such as the Moto Giro d'Italia. Weighing a featherweight 42kg (92.4lb) and with 4.5bhp on tap, it has a top speed of around 90km/h (56mph). Signed on the fuel tank by former privateer racer Vittorio Zito, this rare Motom ultra-lightweight racer is offered with copies of period photographs, some technical drawings, and two instruction manuals. An un-numbered spare engine is included in the sale.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1973 MV Agusta 350BFrame no. MV350B 2130107Engine no. MV 2130101Although better known for their racing and road-going four-cylinder machines, MV Agusta also built a range of stylish single- and twin-cylinder sports bikes throughout the 1950s, '60s and '70s. They were intermittently available in Britain throughout this period but were expensive and never top sellers. Introduced at the Milan Show in 1971, MV's first production 350 roadster was basically an over-bored version of the existing 250B model that had been around since 1967. Of unitary construction, the engine was a compact, twin-cylinder, overhead-valve unit featuring twin Dell'Orto carburettors, geared primary drive, and a five-speed gearbox. Claimed maximum power was 28bhp at 7,600rpm and the top speed in excess of 90mph. Two versions were made: the 350GT tourer and 350B sports roadster, both of which were updated with 12-volt electrics and electronic ignition in October 1972. They were replaced by restyled, 'square case' 350 GT/Sport equivalents for 1975. The basic engine architecture remained unchanged, but power went up to 34bhp at 8,500 revs with a commensurate increase in performance. Currently displaying a total of 48,232km (29,971 miles) on the odometer, this 350 Sport had already been restored when it was purchased for the Morbidelli Museum. There are no documents with this Lot.Footnotes:As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.Lot to be sold without reserve.This lot is subject to the following lot symbols: NN If purchased by a UK resident, this machine is subject to a NOVA declaration, undertaken by Bonhams upon a successful sale, to facilitate the registration of the machine here in the UK.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1973 Ringhini 50cc Grand Prix Racing MotorcycleFrame no. none visibleEngine no. none visible•Built by Franco Ringhini•One of a limited series•Beautifully restoredFranco Ringhini started his career at the Guazzoni factory, where he designed engines. Like many other small Italian concerns, Guazzoni concentrated its efforts on the ultra-lightweight market, and throughout the 1960s and into the 1970s produced a succession of stylish sports roadsters such as the Cadetti and Matta. Many of them used Ringhini-designed rotary-valve two-stroke engines with reversed cylinders (exhaust at the rear), a feature that became something of a company hallmark. Around 1968, Ringhini left Guazzoni to join Giancarlo Morbidelli's fledgling racing team. There he designed a succession of fast disc-valve two-strokes, which initially were raced at World Championship level by both their designer and Eugenio Lazzarini. Morbidelli's Ringhini-designed 50cc racer was the factory's first successful Grand Prix project, although the team collected points at only a handful of rounds in 1969. Lazzarini finished the season 21st in the World Championship with six points, while Ringhini finished 26th with five. Ringhini also designed Morbidelli's first 125cc racer, which Gilberto Parlotti rode to good effect in 1970, its debut year, winning that year's Czechoslovakian Grand Prix. At the end of the 1973 season, Ringhini was replaced as chief designer by Jorg Möller and left Morbidelli to set up his own team in Pesaro. Now independent, Ringhini created a limited series of 50cc racers such as the exquisite example offered here, and also supplied engines to other manufacturers such as Bimota. By this time, the FIM's rules for the 50cc category stipulated a single cylinder and a maximum of six speeds in the gearbox; Ringhini's design has bore/stroke dimensions of 40x39.6mm for a capacity of 49.7cc, and develops its maximum power output of 14bhp at 14,500rpm. Its cylinder inclined forwards, the engine is housed in a tubular steel frame with telescopic front fork and swinging-arm rear suspension, equipped with a 180mm double-sided front drum brake, 130mm single-sided rear brake and 18' wheels. The complete machine weighs in at a mere 60kg (132lb). Beautifully restored, this rare little beauty is presented in stunning condition. Its racing history, if any, is not known. There are no documents with this Lot.

c.1970 Guazzoni 50cc Matta CorsaFrame no. none visibleEngine no. 4The Guazzoni factory was founded in Milan, Italy in 1935 by Aldo Guazzoni (1908-1978). At first the company built models fitted with proprietary engines before turning to the manufacture of three-wheelers. After the war Guazzoni became the Milan concessionaire for Motori Morini and in 1950 returned to the manufacture of motorcycles, making a 150cc two-stroke model for FBM of Bologna. Like many other small Italian concerns, Guazzoni would concentrate its efforts on the ultra-lightweight market, and throughout the 1960s and into the 1970s produced a succession of stylish sports roadsters such as the Cadetti and Matta. Many of them used rotary-valve two-stroke engines with reversed cylinders (exhaust at the rear), a feature that became something of a company hallmark. Guazzoni closed in 1976. The Guazzoni six-speed production racer offered here has a disc-valve engine producing a maximum of 12bhp at 14,500 revs. This tiny machine weighs a mere 50kg (110lb) so has a highly respectable power-to-weight ratio. The machine's history is not known, other than the fact that it probably raced in Italy and is an older restoration by a specialist.
