Yamaha XT500

R reg 1976/77 9,670miles. The first big Jap trailie and the one that launched all the imitators. This is a sensibly modified big off roader with tremendous street cred. You can tell that it has been someone's pride and joy. Good ones are rare now and getting desirable.

Triumph Model W 250cc

Triumph Model W 250cc Side Valve 1927. Local Reg. According to the contemporary Triumph literature this beauty develops a tyre shredding 2.77hp. Actually the 277 is the cc, a curious figure due to the fact that Triumph were trying to pack the most punch into the lightest machine. Sub 200lbs meant cheaper tax. With many of the features of it's bigger brothers, without the weight. Three speed hand change, adjustable tappets, adjustable oil pump and sight feed, internal expanding brakes front and rear, what more could you want? A nice example of a quality vintage lightweight.

Norton 600 19S 1955

A very late version of the big 600cc OHV single which was in production from 1933 to 1958, even allowing for the War that is some production run! Often a sidecar puller, it also makes a more than acceptable solo tourer.

Velocette 350 MAC 1939

The MAC was the mainstay of Velocette production from 1933 to 1952, when it finally got a springer frame. Velocette fans continued to order them right up to 1960, which says a great deal about the quality of the product.

Norton 600 Big Four Side Valve 1951

Norton 600 Big Four Side Valve 1951
Another model which ran from the thirties to the fifties with only minor enhancements, the Big Four was an amiable sidecar puller with few vices. Overshadowed by the flashier units this long running machine sold in great numbers for solo and sidecar work and is a sensible classic buy.

AJS 350 16M 1954 - Sold

The AJS brochure for the period states that "When economy counts, but the performance of a big machine is desired, the model 16 is the obvious answer". I wouldn't go quite that far, but these were solid reliable machines with a pedigree going back many years.
