BMW R50 for sale

1956; Matching Numbers; originally a UK supplied machine still wearing its original registration; obviously a high quality restoration some time ago which has survived very well because it still looks lovely apart from the rear mudguard where the paint finish does not match the quality of the rest of the machine there is however a genuine twin seat with it which if refitted would cover most of the poor paint on the mudguard; the machines starts extremely easily, has a very quiet engine and rides beautifully; these R50's are a very sweet and willing machine; everything works well including the neutral light; there is also a nice folding chrome carrier and the rear footrests with the machine; the mileage at 48k is quite possibly correct because there are a large number of MOT's going back to the 1980's to back it up; a very sweet and honest example                            £8,500

Royal Enfield 500cc 4.88hp for sale;

1928; much recent expenditure; correct ML Magneto just rebuilt by Merv Kendal, new piston rings just fitted, overhauled correct AMAC Carb goes with the machine but was not fitted because it runs so well with the pre-Monobloc, new front brake linings, new leather toolboxes have been made and go with the machine, tank beautifully repainted and the Best & Lloyds caps work well; now running very well but fork bushes will require attention as they are quite sloppy; this is a machine that has been regularly ridden and enjoyed by its last owner until literally the day before it came to us; very rare machine being a 500cc            £9,250

Royal Enfield Super Meteor for sale;

1960; presentable cosmetic condition and generally sound; MOT'd until May 2018; running and riding pretty well but does require some more work so will be sold as a running, rideable project only because we don't have the time (nor inclination to be honest) to deal with it               SOLD

1952 frame with a 1953 engine; extremely sweet runner and riding very well indeed; this is a very sweet little machine to ride, it thoroughly impressed me on my 15 or so mile road test, lovely; runs very well with the Concentric Carb but the original Solex is with it; Alternator Stator has been removed but is with it so the lights are currently total loss but with the exception of the charging system all of th electrics work as they should; nice easy to manage lightweight which has a decent turn of speed; it feels as though it may have been geared up a bit as it cruises very happily at 50 to 60mph            £5,250

Triumph Harris T140 Bonneville for sale;

1987; Black & Red; Matching Numbers; ex Frank Westworth; extremely original including now very rare exhausts (which are in very good shape) etc; starts really easily with its correct Mk1.5 Concentrics, runs and rides extremely well, the engine is increadibly sweet and mechanically very quiet for a Triumph; it is clearly unrestored and therefore showing its age in places in that the rims are pitted, the fork sliders really could do with stripping and polishing or repainting black, the seat cover has a few cracks and it generally has age related marks etc; it is however a very original and honest Harris Bonneville that is lovely to ride; price reflects the cosmetics at                 SOLD

Triumph Tiger 110 for sale;

1959; Matching Numbers; Black & Ivory; this was clearly a very original machine when it was restored to a very high standard some years ago; it has clearly been used extensively since and as a result is showing signs of age and use; there is also some battery acid staining on the offside exhaust; still running and riding extremely well with everything working as it should; very recent new tyres fitted; this a very honest example of these lovely machines that in my opinion are superior to ride and half the price of the Tangerine T120 which are identical apart from the colour and twin carb head               HELD
