The winning jockey's trophy awarded to Lester Piggott after his celebrated ride on Royal Academy to win the Breeders' Cup Mile at Belmont Park 27th October 1990, in the form of a bronze reproduction of the Torrie or Mattei horse, the Renaissance anatomical bronze sculpture created by Giambologna in Florence circa 1585, set on a green marble plinth with presentation plaque reading ROYAL ACADEMY, WINNER, SEVENTH BREEDERS' CUP MILE, BELMONT PARK, OCTOBER 27, 1990, JOCKEY LESTER PIGGOT [sic], 16.5 by 11cm.; sold together with the racecard signed by Lester Piggott, and a photo of Lester at the signing; a silver photo frame inscribed Racing World Awards 1990, Riding Performance, Lester Piggott; and another framed photo (5 items) Royal Academy was a bay colt (1987) by Nijinsky out of Crimson Saint (Crimson Satan). He was owned by Classic Thoroughbreds Plc and trained in Ireland by Vincent O'Brien. Having won The Tetrarch Stakes and the July Cup in 1990 he was sent to America to run in the Breeders' Cup Mile at Belmont Park - which is where the story really begins! Trainer Vincent O’Brien’s regular rider John Reid, and who had ridden Royal Academy to victory in the July Cup, was sidelined with a broken collar bone. The Master of Ballydoyle turned to his jockey of yesteryear Lester Piggott who was 54-years-old, in retirement following a well-publicised prison sentence for tax fraud. Lester rose to the challenge and just 12 days after coming out of retirement headed to New York to team up with the trainer with whom he had shared so much success over the years. In the race, Royal Academy missed the break and the pair found themselves trailing all 12 rivals initially. Summoning a lifetime’s experience in race riding, without any panic Lester and his partner began picking off rivals expending the minimum amount of energy. Royal Academy was still on the bridle but only sixth entering the short home stretch. By the furlong pole they were in fourth and then Piggott unleashed his trademark finish that had set him apart from others in his illustrious career and Royal Academy got up in the shadow of the winning post to edge out Itsallgreektome by a neck. The race commentator exclaiming “Royal Academy does it and a living legend out of retirement 54-year-old Lester Piggott pulls off the upset.” Brough Scott analysing the victory from Lester’s midfield position entering the stretch summed it perfectly for all that had been enthralled with Lester’s horsemanship for so long “somehow you just knew he's going to do it. It’s his simple genius.” In his post-race interview Brough asked the comeback jockey “It’s 20 years since Nijinsky, is it still there for you? Piggott replied “You never forget do you.” Lester is quoted as saying “No moment in my career ever tasted sweeter.”

By Timeform ratings, Dancing Brave (140) was the best horse Pat Eddery rode in his illustrious career. At Stud Dancing Brave sired the 1993 Derby winner Commander In Chief. Pat Eddery won four Arcs. The first came on Detroit in 1980, before achieving a hat-trick of wins on Rainbow Quest (see lot 202), Dancing Brave and Trempolino between 1985 and 1987.

The Anthony R. East Classic Motorcycle Collection1956 Triumph 149cc TerrierRegistration no. SVC 665Frame no. T22005TEngine no. T15 22005In 1952 Triumph re-entered the market for lightweight commuter machines with the introduction of the 149cc Terrier, which stood out from the predominantly two-stroke opposition by virtue of being a four-stroke like the firm's larger models. A simple, compact, unitary construction single incorporating a four-speed gearbox, the Terrier power unit went into a plunger-suspended frame while the model borrowed many styling cues from the bigger Triumphs. Deliveries commenced in August 1953. In 1954 the Terrier was joined by an enlarged version - the 200cc Tiger Cub - and continued in production alongside its bigger brother until August 1956. This Terrier comes with its original buff logbook showing that it was first registered to Motor Sales (Birmingham) on 10th August 1956. The first three owners were all residents of Coventry, while the last listed is a Mr Stuart Kapes of Nuneaton (change undated). Purchased by Tony East in November 1996 and fully restored for him by Bryan Small, the Terrier was a class winner at the Louis Vuitton Concours in 2002 and comes with a 'Louis Vuitton Classic Concours' trophy and sign. The machine also comes with an old-style V5C; an original parts catalogue and instruction manual; and a quantity of bills totalling £5,088 relating to its restoration by Bryan Small. Last taxed to 30th April 2003, the Terrier currently displays a total of 25 miles on the odometer. Two keys present.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.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Property of a deceased's estate1949 Triumph 499cc Trophy CombinationRegistration no. HC 9400Frame no. TF 11017TEngine no. TR5 9106013• Reputedly prepared by the factory• Long-term ownership 1949-1980s• Enthusiastically campaigned by the first owner• Requires recommissioningFrom the time of its introduction in November 1948 the Triumph Trophy was established as a true all-rounder: a machine that could be ridden to work during the week and then, with extraneous components removed, competed on at weekends in its owner's chosen branch of motorcycle sport. The model's origins lay in the factory machines specially prepared for the 1948 ISDT in Italy, which had helped Great Britain win the Trophy competition (GB also won the Vase). Although catalogued primarily as a trials machine, the Trophy's true forte was scrambles and the ISDT, events in which the power of the tunable Triumph twin worked to its advantage and its weight was less of a handicap. Its late owner purchased this Triumph Trophy combination from a car workshop in Cuckfield, Sussex in 1997. The machine had first been owned by George Quantrill, who transformed it into a competitive sidecar trials mount. George had bought the Trophy in 1949 from the factory; reputedly, it is one of six specially prepared by the competitions department to be sold only to active competitors. He was a long-time member of the Brighton & District Motor Cycle Club, competing regularly and serving as an events organiser in the 1950s, '60s and '70s. George updated the Trophy with a bolt-on swinging-arm suspension conversion and fitted a Canterbury trials sidecar as he and his wife Dorothy wanted to compete in long-distance events such as the Exeter and Land's End trials. The sidecar is constructed of aluminium panels on a timber frame, while the sidecar wheel is both sprung and braked. The front brake has been modified to be operable by the foot pedal, and there are numerous other interesting modifications and additions in evidence. When George died in the 1980s he left the Triumph to the mechanic who had maintained it and his 'frog eye' Austin-Healey Sprite. In 1999 the machine passed to the third owner, Kevin Law, who kept it for only seven months before selling it to the vendor's late father in December of that year. In 2017 the story of George Quantrill and 'HC 9400' was recounted in an article in Classic Bike Guide (August edition, copy available). The history file also contains various instruction manuals; technical literature; numerous bills; a quantity of tax discs and MoTs (most recent expired 2012); and old/current V5/V5C documents. Dry stored for the last few years, this unique Triumph Trophy combination will require recommissioning before returning to the road.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.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

2012 Triumph BonnevilleRegistration no. YF12 RZPFrame no. SMTTJ9107GC531641Engine no. 7532751When John Bloor's new Hinckley-based Triumph company launched its debut range at the Cologne Show in the autumn of 1990, it shamelessly raided its old Coventry predecessor's back catalogue for model names. 'Trophy', 'Trident' and 'Daytona' were all represented but there was one glaring omission: 'Bonneville', by far and away the most famous Triumph model designation of all time. Clearly, Triumph was saving it for something special, but enthusiasts would have to wait another ten years to find out what it would be. Predictably, it turned out to be a parallel twin, boasting sufficient 'retro' styling cues to forge strong links in the public consciousness with its illustrious forebear. This Bonneville was acquired by the vendor in 2014 and used regularly; however, he is now struggling with bigger bikes so feels it is time for it to go. The machine displays a total of 16,589 miles on the odometer and is offered with a V5C document.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.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Original and unrestored1922/1923 P&M 600cc Motorcycle CombinationRegistration no. NR 1841Frame no. 10287Engine no. 02345• Present family ownership since 1957• Widely campaigned• Displayed at Stanford HallOffered for sale by his family, this P&M outfit formerly belonged to the late Angus Martin, an engineer involved in developing the first of Frank Whittle's jet engines during WW2. After the war he was proprietor of Dunsmore Garage (1948-1986); a husband and father of three; and, lastly but by no means least, a rider in the Isle of Man TT races in the 1940s, '50s, and '60s, and any circuit you care to name in Great Britain.One day he arrived back at Dunsmore Garage from an auction with the machine offered here, a 1922/1923 P & M motorcycle combination, 'NR 1841'. That was around 1957 when the vendor was ten years old. He remembers riding it for the first time around the pumps on the filling station forecourt, carefully changing gear with the hand-change gear lever: 'It was a fun machine, so different from all our father's other bikes.'Angus's daughter Angela discovered that the previous owner was a Mr Sparks, and when he died the P&M was sold by his friend Bob Haynes, together with all his assets. For some years the P&M remained unused in the garage's car showroom. Then, in the 1980s, the P&M began to be used more. A collection of photographs, VMCC and other magazines, show the sidecar being ridden by Angus Martin at Mallory Park (1989), the Banbury Run (early 1980s) and other events, once with his wife Audrey as a passenger, often with Vic Saunders. Angus Martin always wore his racing helmet, painted silver with a green shamrock on the front, ever a proud Ulsterman.In 1986, Dunsmore Garage was sold and the Martins retired to a house in Rugby. Angus spent many hours going to autojumbles with Vic Saunders, and rebuilding old bikes in a big shed at the end of the garden. At some point the P&M, together with a CSI Norton, spent some years at Stamford Hall on display before being returned to storage in the family garage in Rugby. Sadly, Angus Martin passed away in 1990 and the motorcycles were inherited by our vendor; living in London, he did not have a garage, so they stayed in his mother's garage and moved with her when she moved house again.In 2005, Colin Mitchell, a family friend, rode the P&M, with his lady wife as passenger, dressed in period costume, in the VMCC Warwicks 50th Coventry parade at Coombe Park, winning the Jack Butler Trophy for best Vintage combination. Eventually, the garage was required to house Angela's Austin Seven Ruby, so arrangements were made with the VMCC for them to have the P&M on loan. Bill Phelps was one of the first to accommodate the P&M, and among the papers there is a very interesting account of his stewardship of the machine.The VMCC kept it well maintained, and the P&M was ridden in events such as the Banbury Run. In 2013 it was ridden by David Davies, editor of the VMCC magazine, and was pictured therein leaving Gaydon. Last taxed for the road in 2014, 'NR 1841' has been well cared for and kept running by the VMCC, and was entrusted to the prestigious Sammy Miller Museum in 2022 for repair and recommissioning after an accident. The vendor has now decided that it would be best to pass the P&M on to someone who would, it is hoped, treasure it as its custodians have done for the last 66 years.Accompanying documentation includes an original Instruction Manual (well used); three tax discs from the 1920s; a current V5C Registration Certificate; correspondence; parts price lists; various photographs; and details of events entered and prizes won, mostly VMCC related. There are also numerous magazines with articles and photographs of the outfit being ridden in various events. The history file's contents testify to the care taken of the P&M by the VMCC, showing their great love and respect for these lovely old motorcycles.Having spent 66 years in the care of one family, and displaying that wonderful patina that only an original and unrestored machine can have, this delightful 100-year-old P&M combination is worthy of the closest inspection.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.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The John Hobbs Collectionc.1905 Vindec Special ProjectRegistration no. AEL 641AFrame no. 166036Engine no. 4992Not to be confused with the Brown Brothers' British-made Vindec, the Vindec Special was built in Cologne, Germany by the Köln-Lindenthaler Metallwerke AG, which also marketed its products - both cars and motorcycles - as 'Allright' (Allreit). Vindec Special products were distributed in the UK by the South British Trading Company (SBT) under the guidance of William 'Billy' Wells, who was later to handle the importation and sales of Indian motorcycles with great success in Britain, Europe and the Colonies. The Vindec Special was first exhibited at the 1903 Stanley Show in London. That machine was powered by a 2¾hp Fafnir engine (FN and Minerva engines would be used also) but by 1907 the 5hp Peugeot v-twin engine had been adopted. Thanks to Billy Wells' competition successes, and favourable press reports by journalists such as Ixion, who described the machine in glowing terms, the Vindec Special earned itself an enviable reputation. It was in the 1907 Tourist Trophy race on the Isle of Man that the Vindec Special first caught the public's attention. This Vindec Special is offered as an incomplete restoration project and appears to incorporate some restored, unrestored and reproduction components, while various parts are missing. Note the 'SBT' initials cast into the crankcases of the engine, which is of the inlet-over-exhaust type and equipped with a Bosch magneto. The machine is offered with a V5C document, an HPI check sheet, and some correspondence. Requiring restoration to a greater or lesser extent, prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the condition, completeness, correctness, date and suitability of the machine's component parts prior to bidding.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.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The Anthony R. East Classic Motorcycle Collection1959 Triumph 649cc Tiger 110 'Trophy'Registration no. OVS 382Frame no. 028755Engine no. T110 028755Every Triumph enthusiasts knows that the Bonneville owes its name to record-breaking successes on the eponymous Utah salt flats, but how many are aware that the machine which set a new 650cc production machine record of over 147mph in 1958 was a Tiger 110 equipped with twin carburettors? A development of the Thunderbird tourer, the T110 prototype performed brilliantly in the 1953 ISDT, thus providing the production version - launched later that year - with invaluable publicity. The first Triumph with swinging-arm rear suspension, the T110 came with a revised engine incorporating a stronger crankshaft, high-compression pistons, larger inlet valves and 'hotter' cams. The T110 remained in production into 1961, one of the most important developments along the way being the introduction on this model for 1956 of the aluminium-alloy 'Delta' high-compression cylinder head, which increased power and pushed the T110's top speed towards 120mph. Styled to look like the dual-purpose road/dirt Trophy model, this Tiger 110 was purchased by Tony East in December 1997 (purchase invoice on file). Restored throughout, the machine displays a total of 1,556 miles on odometer and was last taxed in May 2005. Accompanying documentation includes a quantity of invoices and old MoT certificates; original instruction manual and replacement parts list; current V5C document; and restorer Bryan Small's invoice for £7,510.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.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Property of Peter Ardronc.1938 BMW R12 750cc Motorcycle CombinationRegistration no. EOR 189Frame no. 11187Engine no. 36067• Imported into the UK in 1944• Ex-German Army• Present ownership since 2014• Expertly restored with no expense spared (completed 2017)This wonderful R12 motorcycle combination belongs to Peter Ardon, a well-known and highly respected enthusiast within the BMW community (Peter helped restore/commission the 1941 BMW R12 that was sold by Bonhams in 2022). Restoring these older BMWs has always been his passion and he probably has more experience of working on them than anyone else in the UK. Indeed, he founded and ran for several years an international vintage BMW club.'EOR 189' was first registered in the UK in 1944, but BMW have confirmed the October 1938 date of manufacture for the frame and its delivery as part of an R12 to the Army Ordnance Office in Munich. The engine came from another R12 delivered in September 1941 to the Luftzeugamt Küpper (Luftzeugamt = civilian Air Office). BMW's dating letter is on file. It is quite likely that the R12 was a war trophy brought back by a British officer during WW2. The BMW has had six previous owners, the last of whom owned it for over 50 years. He confirmed he had not painted the machine and did not believe it had been repainted since importation. It was covered in a thick, oil based black paint. The story passed down with the machine is that the importer painted over the German Army colours with household black to make it less objectionable in wartime Britain. The original Army colour was still visible underneath the black but was beyond restoration. Peter decided that as the bike had been painted black since (probably) 1944, then restoring it in civilian colours better reflected its history than a return to German Army Grey. Dream Machine of Nottingham were entrusted with most of the repaint. Peter bought this R12 nine years ago and restored it with no expense spared purely for his own use. It has had everything done that it could possibly need, including sending the frame to RRC Tuning in Germany, R12 specialists and the only company in Europe with the experience and tooling necessary to straighten it to as-new tolerances. RRC were also entrusted with the electrical rebuilds, etc and they and Mark Huggett supplied most of the spares. None of the cheap, poorer-quality spares which are available from Poland and elsewhere have been used.One minor gearbox component (which does not in any way affect reliability or how it runs) was not available during the rebuild but comes with the bike should the next owner wish to fit it. Only Peter's ill health has prevented it from fitting it himself. No expense was spared in the rebuild, and Peter says that the machine runs even better than it looks. Purists will spot some reproduction parts but these are all minor, and it is doubtful there is a more practical R12 in the country. The sidecar is brand new and is a quality reproduction of an original Steib. With practicality and stopping-power in mind, Peter has fitted a brake (easily removed) to the sidecar. Poor health has meant that Peter has been unable to use the BMW as intended (he has only managed some 3,500 kilometres) and that is the only reason he is selling it now. The R12 last ran in August 2023. Accompanying documentation consists of Peter's purchase receipt; a photocopy of an old-style continuation logbook (issued 1952); a current V5C Registration Certificate; and numerous receipts for new spares.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.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

Offered for sale by former World Champion Kork Ballington; the 1979 World Championship-winning1979/1980 Kawasaki KR250 Racing MotorcycleFrame no. 601F 8003Engine no. 601E 8003•Kork Ballington's 1979 and 1980 World Championship works machine•Five Grand Prix wins in 1980•Purchased directly from the factory in 1982•Grand Prix winner's trophies included•Valuable spare parts kitFew machines in Grand Prix racing's modern era have enjoyed such a lengthy period of dominance as the Kawasaki 'tandem twins' which ruled the 250 and 350 classes from 1978 to 1982, winning 72 GPs and securing eight World Championships for the Japanese manufacturer. A radical design, the KR250/350 employed the rotary inlet valves that had been a feature of previous Kawasaki two-strokes, but avoided the associated disadvantage of excess width (when applied to a conventional parallel twin) by using two inline cylinders with separate geared-together crankshafts. As well as the advantage of asymmetrical inlet timing, the use of direct crankcase induction via rotary disc valves enabled an extra transfer port to be accommodated in the cylinder where the inlet port would have been, while the tandem arrangement also left more room for the side transfer ports. After an inauspicious debut season in 1975, the KR250 took a Grand Prix sabbatical in 1976, returning to the fray in '77 in heavily revised form with altered crankshaft phasing and mono-shock rear suspension. Mick Grant scored the KR's debut GP victory at Assen that year and followed up with a win in Sweden, but it was not until Kork Ballington's arrival the following year that the KR posed a serious championship threat. The South African went on to secure both the 250 and 350 World Championships in 1978 and '79, while German Anton Mang took the 250 World Championship in 1980 and '81 and the 350 title in 1981 and '82. This KR250 is a 1979 model used for that season and in 1980, the last year Kork Ballington competed in the 250cc World Championship. This bike has pedigree: it is one of two that were available to Kork throughout 1979 and 1980 (there were no new bikes were made for 1980) and has been confirmed by former Kawasaki crew chief, Ken Suzuki as the World Championship-winning machine from 1979. In 1979 Kork secured seven wins on his way to the World Championship (Germany, Italy, Spain, Finland, Great Britain, Czechoslovakia and France). In 1980 he had bagged five victories (Spain, France, Finland, Great Britain and Germany) and a 2nd place from seven starts when illness forced him to miss three rounds of the Championship, namely the Yugoslavian, Dutch and Belgian, which undoubtedly robbed him of the opportunity to collect his fifth World title. He finished 2nd in the World Championship that year. This Kawasaki KR250 carries the No. 1 plate as Kork had won the 1979 250cc World Championship. The KR250 is in excellent original condition and was in perfect running order when last started. Kork acquired the machine from the factory in 1982, and it has not been ridden since 1980 apart from periodically being started and ridden up the street outside his home! After the last start-up in 2018, Kork gave it a complete strip and clean, assembled it dry and has kept it in his climate controlled trophy room. It had slight damage to the magnesium water pump cover, which was repaired. The frame and cycle parts are as last raced in 1980, and the slick tyres are still on it. There is a comprehensive spares kit including possibly the last new crankshaft kits on the planet together with cylinders, pistons, rings and lots of other valuable parts (list available). To quote Kork: 'one could run the bike for many years if careful'.The trophies from the following five Grand Prix wins will be included in the sale also:Spanish GP at Jarama 18/5/80French GP at Paul Ricard 35/5/80German GP at the Nrburgring 24/8/80British GP at Silverstone 10/8/80Finnish GP at Imatra 27/7/80A rare opportunity to acquire a genuine, ex-works, World Championship racing motorcycle of impeccable provenance and presented in very good condition throughout. A signed copy of Kork's autobiography, Ballington Uncorked, come with it, and he hopes its new owner will get as much pleasure from owning the machine as he has.Footnotes:Please note that this vehicle is from outside the UK.

Lot 500

1970 Triumph 490cc T100SSRegistration no. SUF 481HFrame no. XD35686Engine no. XD35686 T100SIntroduced for the 1960 season, the Tiger 100A was the first sports version of Triumph's unitary construction 500 twin, the 5TA. A raised compression ratio and 'hotter' cams helped the Tiger to a top speed in the region of 90mph, while the retention of a single carburettor meant that fuel economy did not suffer unduly. The T100A's replacement, the Tiger 100SS built between 1961 and 1970, featured an abbreviated rear 'bathtub' enclosure in its first incarnation together with larger-diameter wheels and a slightly more powerful engine equipped with coil ignition. By the end of the 1960s, changes to the Tiger 100 had included an improved frame with stiffened top tube, 12-volt electrics (along with the rest of the twins) and the adoption of a twin-leading-shoe front brake.First registered on 10th July 1970, and dating from the final year of production, this matching numbers example boasts a fully traceable history back to the first registered keeper. Believed to have undergone restoration by the immediately preceding owner c.2002, during which a two-into-one high-level exhaust was added to resemble a Trophy, the machine is described as being in generally good condition, albeit showing signs of aging. It is not known when it was last started and will require recommissioning to a greater or lesser extent prior to returning to the road. Offered with a substantial history file that includes a large quantity of restoration invoices, MOT certificates, V5, old style V5C, V5C and photocopies of the buff logbook and older V5s, owner's handbook and replacement parts catalogue.2 keysFootnotes: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.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

The Anthony R. East Classic Motorcycle Collection1938 Triumph 350cc Tiger 80Registration no. JFO 914Frame no. TL.5199Engine no. 8-T80 9022• Acquired by Tony East in 1999• Acquired by Tony East in 1999• Invoices totalling £8,192Edward Turner's arrival at Triumph in 1936 resulted in extensive improvements to the existing range. A brilliant stylist, Turner transformed the Val Page-designed overhead-valve singles by adopting sports specification engines, high level exhausts, chromed fuel tanks, and an evocative new name: Tiger. Frames, forks, engines, and gearboxes were all improved for 1937 and a trio of randomly selected Tigers successfully completed a series of arduous speed trails to secure the Maudes Trophy for Triumph later in the year. Today, Turner's Tigers are widely recognised as the most stylish sports roadsters of the period and thus are highly sought after. Restored throughout, this Tiger 80 was acquired by Tony East in April 1999 and last taxed for the road to the end of May 2010. Accompanying paperwork includes numerous bills relating to the Tiger's restoration by Bryan Small Motorcycles circa 1999 totalling £8,192; a previous owner purchase receipt (dated 10.10.95 when it was sold by Newton & Smyle Motorcycles on behalf of collector Bob Threader to a Mr Wilks of York); three old MoTs (most recent expired 2010); an original 1938 parts catalogue; and old/current V5C registration documents. The odometer reading was 95 miles at time of cataloguing.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.Lot to be sold without reserve.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

TL4817Engine no. 8-T70-7857• Acquired by Tony East in 1999• Restored by Bryan Small circle 1999• Invoices totalling £6,050Just as he had done at Ariel in the 1920s, Val Page transformed his employer's ageing range on his arrival as Triumph's Chief Designer in 1932. The new line-up comprised overhead-valve and sidevalve singles in capacities ranging from 250cc to 500cc, plus the range-topping 650cc 6/1 sidecar tug.
