Watch video of the BSA Super Rocket running here

BSA A10 Super Rocket for sale

1961; This machine is VERY SPECIAL INDEED because it is pretty much entirely original even down to the paintwork. It has covered a mere 20,000 miles from new and has had three owners the last two of which living in Shetland since 1964 which largely explains the low mileage. The most recent owner, an existing customer of ours bought the bike from the Son of the second deceased owner 16 years ago. He stripped the engine purely to check it to find it was in fabulous order thereby merely replacing the rings and big ends for new standard ones as well as cleaning the sludge trap and new oil pump gears all as precautionary measures to ensure reliability. He covered 6,000 miles during his ownership carrying out some other work to keep it reliable including a magneto overhaul. This has to be one of, if not the most original Super Rocket around and is in truly unique, fabulous condition being so very original. It runs absolutely beautifully sounding just as they did when new and it rides absolutely perfectly. It is certainly one of, if the not nicest A10 I have ridden in a very long time and I have ridden lots of them. We have made no attempt to clean it all up for sale as it looks so lovely in its 'working clothes'. A very rare opportunity to find one like this.            £5,995

 

Douglas Classic Motorcycles for Sale

Douglas Mk5 for sale;

This machine is being sold by a long standing customer/friend of ours and is in Tiverton Devon not here with us in Herefordshire. Please contact Cyril Finch directly on 01884 256457

Cyril purchased the bike from us very recently but has discovered that despite the bike being a really good starter, at 85 years of age with dodgy knees, his kickstarting days are over and would consider a small electric start bike as a trade. Call him if interested.

1953; Black & Silver; Matching Numbers; original registration; full engine rebuild including a complete crankshaft/conrod overhaul by Apha Bearings and rebore with Honda pistons etc just completed; cosmetically an older restoration but still very smart indeed; extensive history file; really nice example throughout; prop stand and new cables also fitted since the photos were taken; previously supplied by ourselves                £4,500

Honda Classic Motorcycles For Sale

    Watch video of the Honda Valkyrie running here

Honda F6C Valkyrie for sale

2000; 20k miles; exceptionally lovely condition both cosmetically and mechanically; I'm really torn about this bike. I really want to keep it because it is soooo very comfortable and perhaps surprisingly enormous fun to ride but it is also very heavy and it takes up a fair bit of space which is one thing I'm always short of. It is probably a bit too shiny for me too with all of that chrome to keep it in its fabulouys condition                £6,500

Watch Video of the Honda CB550K running here

Honda CB550 K for sale;

1978; we have previously sold this machine to a regular customer having originally purchased it from another regular customer who restored it very well. The last owner did use the bike but clearly looked after it very well and spent a fair bit of time polishing too as it looks even nicer now than when we sold it. It benefits from having what appears to be the original exhausts one of which has been very well and discreetly welded on the underside. A really lovely example that is a joy to ride;                £6,500

   Watch video of the Honda CB750K running here

Honda CB750K for sale

1982.  Has clearly been the subject of a cosmetic makeover some years ago and it still presents very well. The last mature owner who is a very long standing very regular customer of ours sadly suffered a stroke shortly after purchase so it was left idle for some years although he had a local to him bike shop re-commission it before trading it in with its for a smaller lighter machine. It now runs and rides well. The idle is slightly lumpy in the video probably because it was pretty much stone cold when filmed. The offside exhaust has had a patch welded in on the underside which has been well executed as it is barely visible. Great value machine that is now over 40 years old so Historic. There is a hump backed single seat with it too for the more 'sporty' look..        SOLD

Matchless G12CSR for sale;

1961; UK Supplied machine; original transferable registration; clearly been the subject of a very comprehensive restoration in 2018 but seen very little use since mainly due to the last owners health issues; cosmetic paint finish is good and very smart but not modern standard flawless finish;  lots of detailed restoration photos (including lots of engine etc) on file with Invoices etc; fitted with a clever anti-wetsump tap which cuts off the ignition when the tap is closed for safety of the engine; nice example that starts easily, runs and rides well             £4,750

Norton Classic Motorcycles For Sale

Watch video of the Norton Model 50 runing here

Norton Model 50 for sale;

1959; Matching Numbers; original registration; we originally purchased this machine around a couple of years ago from a long standing customer who had owned it for 49 years!!! It hadn't been run for some time so we sold it imediately to another regular customer as a non runner but he got it running and all working again; it now runs very nicely and is extremely pleasant to ride; it is fundementally unrestored and therefore very much in oily rag condition; it would make a perfect candidate for a full Concours restoration as it is so complete, solid and original although in our opinion, it is lovely as it is and best left to use as it is with some minor further re-commissioning; the last owner who is another very long standing customer of our for some 20 years has been forced to sell due to his failing eyesight at 86 years of age; we love this machine; clearly, the rear rack can easily be removed without leaving any holes; previously supplied by ourselves         £3,850

  Watch video of the Norton Commando running here

Norton 850 Commando Interstate

Matching Engine, Frame & Gearbox Numbers. Original UK supplied machine. It has a very extensive history file with many receipts etc dating back 30 odd years as well as many MOT's going back to 1982 which suggest (although not verified) that the total mileage covered of the machine is around 34,000 having had a speedometer change at just under 24k miles. The machine underwent a full mechanical overhaul by 'Mechanical Developments' in Stafford fairly recently as verified by a detailed but undated Invoice amounting to just under £6,000. The Norton starts easily and has a very sweet engine. It runs and rides just as a good Commando should. It is very smooth and pulls really well. Feels just right with the benefit of the upgraded front brake. Very good cosmetically as well but clearly not Concours as it has been used. Only being sold because the last owner now requires an electric starter and has therefore ordered a brand new Norton Commando                   SOLD

 

Triumph Classic Motorcycles For Sale  

Watch video of the Triumph T120R running here

Triumph T120R Bonnevillefor sale;

1970; Matching Numbers; we originally sold this machine to the last owner a few years ago having recently benefitted from an engine overhaul but very much in oily rag condition cosmetically; he then undertook a significant a cosmetic make over on it so it now presents very well indeed; starts easily; re-wired, new rims and spokes etc; runs and rides very well; not Concours but a very smart machine; previously supplied by ourselves                £8,750

Watch video of the Triumph T120R running here

Triumph T120R Bonneville for sale

1966; Export Spec, Matching Numbers; Not 'Purist' correct but looks right and is a cracking bike that runs and rides very well. It is very smart but not a Concours Show winner. Recently benefitted from a top end overhaul including re-bore and pistons, new Monobloc Carburettors, complete rewiring, new seat, wheels rebuilt, exhaust, new clocks, tank repaint etc etc. Twin Leading Shoe brake plate from a 1968 machine fitted which works exceptionally well. The engine has also had the breathing system correctly modified to the Meriden Factory style post 1969 system of using the primary case as a catch tank to improve oil tightness. It was clearly rebuilt to be used.             £7,500

  Watch Video of the Triumph TR6SS running here       

Triumph TR6SS for sale;

1962; Candy Red & Silver; Matching Numbers; UK supplied machine; original registration; probably the most extensive history file we have seen; one owner from new until around 2006 when we first purchased the bike, we then sold it to a regular customer who restored it well and sold it back to us a year later; it was then used as my personal bike until around 3 years ago when it was sold to another regular customer who sold it back to us 18 months later due to change in circumstances; we then sold it to another customer who has now decided to part with it hence its return to us and we are delighted to have it back; I have covered thousands of miles on this machine always making sure that it was kept in 'tip top' condition both cosmetically and mechanically; it was always 100% reliable literally never letting me down; the TR6SS is actually pictured in our 'About Us' pages on this website complete with period photos (the first one shows the original owner whilst he was collecting the bike when new) all of which plus a great many more go with the bike in the history file; this still a superb example throughout with just the most amazing history detailed from new; they say that you should never go back which is the only reason it is not staying here again now although it is very tempting so someone, please come and buy it quickly..........;             £11,500

Velocette Classic Motorcycles For Sale

Watch video of the Velocette E2 running here

 Velocette Model E2

1922; Clearly an older restoration which was quite obviously a quality job when done and it is still presenting very well as can be seen. It does start easily and it runs nicely albeit all of the hand controls are quite tricky when trying to operate the video camera at the same time!!! It still has its 102 year old original Buff Card Log Book in the file. It is currently fitted with a slightly larger front brake which is still pretty useless but and original wheel with the correct brake is also with it. We sold it a few years ago to a regular customer who is very well known in Velocette circles and who has just parted with it against a Velocette Thruxton we had here.            £4,995

Watch video of the Velocette Thruxton running here
