Lot 379
The last Commando sold by Andover Norton c.1975 Norton 850 Commando MkIII InterstateRegistration no. not registeredFrame no. 336456Engine no. 336456•Assembled between 1975-1977 and released in 1982•Fully authenticated•1.7 push milesWhen Norton Villiers Triumph's Wolverhampton factory went into receivership/liquidation, circa 1975, there were around 1,500 MkIII Commandos in the process of final production, upon which work immediately ceased. Over the next 18 months these machines were effectively owned by the official Administrator and remained untouched, but secure, inside the locked Marston Road factory. By 1977, Dennis Poore's freshly funded company, NVT Ltd, with premises at Shenstone and Andover, was beginning to purchase many of the former group's assets; including the brand names and intellectual rights, as well as machine tools and the original spares stock held at the time of the closure. As the successor company, NVT Ltd was under intense pressure to meet the huge demand for Commando spares, and set up a subsidiary, Andover Norton Ltd, to continue the Norton spares business.Following its 1977 formation, Andover Norton Ltd consisted of a warehouse and a nearby retail premises. It was during this period that Poore negotiated a deal with the liquidator to buy all the 'work in progress' within the long-shut Wolverhampton plant, but primarily the 1,500 unfinished MkIII Commandos. John Pedley, the factory's former works director, was charged with engaging 100 former key personnel, who would ensure that the stock of MkIIIs, once completed, emerged from Shenstone with the correct specification. Sales were entrusted to Mike Jackson at Andover. Following their introduction, the MkIIIs sold well in the UK; so well in fact that certain London dealers began an unnecessary 'discounting' campaign, much to NVT's annoyance. In response, NVT decided to retain a batch of MkIIIs, to be sold at top retail price through their Andover shop. Andover Norton was in no hurry, so it took several years to sell them all. The final machine went to Mr David Hughes of St Austell, who appointed legendary Norton tuner/entrant Ray Petty to collect the bike. That motorcycle is offered here today and comes with Mike Jackson's 2010 letter to David Hughes confirming its provenance. The collection was made in 1982 and Ray Petty was pictured seated on the Commando in Motor Cycle News' 14th July edition (page 72). This machine is also pictured on page 105 of the accompanying Norton Buyer's Guide. When Andover Norton Ltd were appointed the UK concessionaires for the Goodyear Eagle tyre, this Commando was used for the launch and photographed with former 500cc Motorcycle World Champion Kenny Roberts seated on it (copy on file). By time of the Hughes purchase, the Shenstone factory had long since completed its last Commando, the final machine, '336539', assembled towards the end of 1977, being retained by John Pedley. David Hughes kept the Commando in his private collection of 'zero' miles machines in St Austell, Cornwall until, due to failing health, he decided to entrust it to North Cornwall Motorcycles to find a suitable buyer on his behalf in 2014. The current vendor purchased it as a display piece for the lobby of his 'British Themed' hotel, where it was installed in a glass case and has remained on display ever since.This unique and historic machine comes with the aforementioned authenticating paperwork and a Rider's Manual.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 474
Property of a deceased's estate c.1931 Vincent-HRD 500cc Two-Port OHV Sports ModelRegistration no. not registeredFrame no. P418 (see text)Engine no. KOZ/H 11191•One of only 25 Two-Port OHV Sports Models sold in 1931•Present ownership since 1987•Substantial history fileThe Vincent-HRD marque originated in 1928 when Philip C Vincent acquired the name, jigs, tools and patterns of the recently liquidated HRD Company. ('HRD' stood for Howard Raymond Davies, the Isle of Man TT winner who had founded the firm in 1924.) Having read Mechanical Engineering at Kings College, Cambridge, Vincent was highly critical of the characteristics of contemporary motorcycles, their lack of rear suspension in particular, and built his own sprung-frame prototype in 1927. With its pivoting triangulated rear fork and springs mounted beneath the saddle, it set the pattern for all future Vincent motorcycles. However, the motorcycling public remained unconvinced of the advantages of rear suspension, and that, coupled with the fact that the first Vincent frames used triangulated straight tubes and looked unconventionally 'Cotton-like' in appearance, only served to depress sales still further. In 1930 Vincent sold only 35 machines, rising to 50 in 1931.Like Davies before him, Vincent relied on proprietary engines until increasing dissatisfaction with suppliers led to the creation of Vincent's own in 1934. Until then he had sourced engines from both JAP and Rudge. By this time the triangulated frames had gone, replaced by more conventional 'diamond' types, albeit still with rear springing. With 22 sold in 1930 and 25 in 1931, the 500cc Two-Port OHV Sports Model was by far the most popular in the Vincent-HRD range during that period. This example is believed to have been raced in Ireland during the 1930s before coming to the UK in the late 1940s. The dry-sump JAP engine is coded 'H' for 1931 so would have been manufactured at any time between 1st September 1930 and 31st August 1931. Strangely, frame number 'P418' is not listed in the works order book, the sequence going from 'P417' to 'P419'. Vincent was experiencing cracked frames at this time, and it has been suggested that 'P418' might have been supplied as a replacement, although there is no evidence to support this. This motorcycle has for many years been associated with the (Irish) registration 'IL 4247', but the frame number does not match that on the V5C and so the machine is offered without a V5C Registration Certificate. The Vincent was acquired by the late owner in 1987 having previously belonged to one Harold Turner of Caversham, Reading. It comes with a most substantial history file containing old registration documents; sundry magazines; photocopy instruction books; a quantity of MoTs (most recent expired 2013); and copious correspondence (close examination recommended).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
