Lot 613
* PETER GRAHAM ROI (SCOTTISH b 1959), HONFLEUR, FRANCE oil on canvas, signed 60cm x 65cm Framed. Note: Peter Graham was born in Glasgow in 1959. He attended the Glasgow School of Art, graduating in 1980. In 2000 Peter was elected to Full Membership of The Royal Institute of Oil Painters, R.O.I. Peter has earned a reputation as one of Britain’s most gifted and distinctive Modern Colourists. His work is often related to the Modern Scottish School but Peter has a flamboyant style which is unique, – detailed brush work combined with loose fluid strokes creating vibrant contrasts of pure colour, line and tone. In the winter months within his studio he delves deeply into the still life genre, creating some of his most stunning compositions, always with colour the dominant theme but reflecting the heightened sense of atmosphere and passion that comes directly from painting in the beauty of the Mediterranean. Recently, hugely successful exhibitions in London have allowed Peter to take on extra studio space and his work is being enthusiastically exhibited by many of the UK's most prestigious galleries. Impressive recent auction prices include a slightly smaller example "Decorations with Flowers" which was sold at McTear's in The Scottish Contemporary Art Auction for £2800 (lot 580, 26th May 2019).

Property of a deceased's estate c.1963 Honda 250cc CR72 Racing MotorcycleFrame no. CR72-310192Engine no. CR72E-310119• Incredibly rare, Ex-works Honda racer• Third place bike in 1963 lightweight TT• Ex-Bill SmithIn the 250 class Honda were running the four-cylinder machines from as early as 1959, and in Grand Prix events from 1960. Whilst the fours participated in the most prestigious events, Honda made a twin-cylinder CR72 250 to compete in lower ranked races. Whilst the standard CR72 was an over-the-counter racer available to the public, and Honda even made a road-legal version fitted with lights, there were a few 'works' machines with significant differences, to be campaigned by works riders or selected privateer racers with close connections to Honda. The example offered here is one such works machine.We have endeavoured to trace the history of the machine as far as possible and we know that the last, deceased owner, Bill Barker, purchased the bike in Ireland from John Martin for the sum of £2350 plus a 1928 Triumph in 1977 (receipt on file). At the beginning of its history, we believe that Bill Smith sold the bike to a gentleman in Wolverhampton from whom it was purchased by Terry Teece. Terry sold the Honda in 1974 to 'a Publican in Wigan' whom we believe to be Eric Biddle, Landlord of The Squirrel public house, who owned and traded many racing bikes around that time. How it moved from Eric Biddle in 1974 to John Martin in 1977 is still unknown at the time of cataloguing, but this may have simply been a sale from one to the other. In the early part of its life, until after the custody of Terry Teece, the bike was known as the one on which Bill Smith finished 3rd in the 1963 Lightweight TT. When Bill Barker obtained the machine, he was told that it had been raced by Ralph Bryans and Tommy Robb. Our enquiries have led to verbal confirmation from Bill Smith, with reference to the frame number, that it is the machine on which he finished third in the 1963 Lightweight TT.The deceased owner used the bike in CRMC racing until an engine blow-up during the 1980s. After obtaining various parts, new Carillo conrods, and having a new crankshaft made in Germany, Barker had the engine rebuilt. It was completed and re-installed in the rolling chassis approximately 13 years ago, but he then became ill, and subsequently passed away in 2008. The machine has been kept in dry storage since that time, and will require a thorough check over, and careful re-commissioning before running or racing again. A small number of parts, along with two fairings (one fibreglass and one believed original alloy) accompany the machine, together with documentation comprising correspondence from Bill Smith with Japan, other correspondence with various parties, notes, and sundry papers.Also consigned to this sale, listed separately in the Automobilia section, are two dismantled, incomplete engines, a CR77 and a CR72 (Lot nos. 204 & 203 respectively).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.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com
Lot 628
c.1954 Matchless 498cc G45 Racing MotorcycleFrame no. none visibleEngine no. 54/20 19591•One of the most beautiful British racing motorcycles ever made•An older restorationThe prototype of what would become the G45 first appeared at the '51 Manx Grand Prix with Robin Sherry in the saddle, eventually finishing 4th after a promising debut. In fact, the machine was not an entirely new design but essentially a hybrid comprised of AJS 7R-based cycle parts into which was installed a tuned Matchless G9 roadster engine. The engine's bottom-end remained more-or-less stock G9 and retained AMC's unique centre-bearing crankshaft, but above the crankcase there was a new aluminium-alloy cylinder barrel and 'head, the latter sporting distinctively finned exhaust rocker boxes. In 1952 the prototype G45 garnered much valuable publicity and not a little controversy when Derek Farrant - later an AJS works rider on both Porcupine and 7R3 - won the Senior Manx Grand Prix after leading from start to finish. Strictly speaking, a works prototype had no business running in an event for amateurs riding over-the-counter machines, but AMC quickly announced that a production G45 would be available for 1953. Although still based on that of the G9, the production version's engine incorporated a different camshaft, which opened the valves via roller-ended followers, and breathed via a pair of Amal GP carburettors mounted either side of a central float chamber. Claimed power output was 48bhp at 7,200rpm, increasing on later models to 54bhp at 7,400 revs. Apart from revised valve gear and the eventual adoption of a forged crankshaft, the G45 changed little over the course of its life and what developments there were did not keep pace with the opposition. At the end of the 1954 season, AMC announced a cutback in its racing programme, which meant the end for the Porcupine and the 7R3, though the G45 and 7R continued to be developed and raced. Production of the G45 ceased in 1957 after around 80 machines had been built, of which approximately half are believed to survive worldwide today. Before then, the works team's best result at international level with the G45 had been Rod Coleman's 2nd place in the 1954 Ulster Grand Prix.This restored G45 was bought from UK-based collector George Beale. It has not proved possible to locate a frame number, and the engine number prefix '54/20' suggests that the crankcases (at least) started life in a 1954 AJS Model 20. Accordingly, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with regard to the correctness or otherwise of this motorcycle's components prior to bidding. Sold strictly as viewed.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.1990 Ducati 888cc '851 Superbike' Racing MotorcycleFrame no. none visibleEngine no. ZDM888W4001409•Based on a standard production model•Replica of Raymond Roche's works machine•In the Museum for some 20 yearsOne of the most influential motorcycles of recent times, the Ducati 851 Superbike restored the fortunes of the Italian company and paved the way for a highly successful family of superbikes, the final (pre-Panigale) example being the 1098 of 2007. In developing the original 851 Desmoquattro, engineer Massimo Bordi created one of the finest motorcycle power plants ever. By the mid-1980s, Ducati's existing air-cooled Desmodue twins were approaching the end of their development, so Bordi started with a clean sheet in creating their water-cooled, 8-valve, fuel-injected successor. Ducati's trademark desmodromic valve actuation system, which closes the valves mechanically rather than relying on springs, was retained, as was the 90-degree angle between the cylinders. Wrapped around this outstanding Desmoquattro engine was a frame, consisting of an intricate trellis of straight tubes, whose design would become a Ducati trademark. Only one paint scheme was available at first: silver-grey frame with bodywork in the Italian national colours of red/white/green, hence these models' Tricolore sobriquet.Riding the factory prototype, Marco Lucchinelli had won the Battle of The Twins (BoTT) race at Daytona in March 1987, and Ducati then spent the rest of the season on development prior to the production version's launch at the Milan Show in November. Two models were available initially: the 851 Strada and 851 Superbike Kit, the latter being the first of many limited edition 'homologation specials' produced to satisfy World Superbike Championship requirements. One of the first of the latter was the 851 SP2, introduced for 1990, which although still badged as an '851' had an 888cc engine. In 1991 Ducati offered the 851 Corsa (Racing), also known as the Roche Replica, which was a faithful replica of Raymond Roche's 1990 WSBC-winning 888 (the 851 badging was intended to convince the paying spectator that the bike was identical to the road version). In due course the 888cc engine became available in the mainstream production model, the 888 Strada, which debuted in 1993.We are advised that the machine offered here started life as a standard production model and has been prepared for racing as a replica of Roche's works machine. The frame appears to be un-numbered, so it has not been possible to determine in what model it left the factory. In the Museum for some 20 years, the machine is offered for re-commissioning and sold strictly as viewed.
