• A rare and original UK supplied NSU 250 Supermax

• Only 4 owners from new, the last one since 1977

• Supplied with its original Green log book and a V5C

In the 1950s NSU was the largest motorcycle producer in the world and was said to have inspired Soichiro Honda in his early designs. Introduced in 1953, the NSU Max had some very innovative features including a monocoque frame made from pressed steel which was later inherited by the Supermax.

This Supermax, part of a deceased estate and being offered at no reserve, features the unique Ultramax connecting link for its single overhead camshaft and full-width alloy hubs. An expensive bike new and built with typical German quality, it could out-perform many larger machines. This example was supplied new by George Leigh Motorcycles, Southport in 1965, and has only had 4 owners, the last one buying it in 1977. Used by its owner as part of a collection of European bikes and thought to be original paint, it has been stood for a number of years so will need recommissioning before use. Offered with numerous old MOTs, its original RF60 log book, 1977 bill of sale and a current V5C.

1934 Velocette KTT Evocation

Estimate: £10,000 - £12,000*

• A fast late-vintage machine

• The engine is believed to be from a 1932 TT machine

• Fully rebuilt engine and gearbox by Chris Odling

The first production KTT racers were sold to the public in 1928 when two machines were sold, effectively replicas of the works machine that had secured Velocette’s second TT win in the 1928 Junior race. The model was produced in its original form with only detail alterations until 1932 when the MkIV was introduced.

This Velocette KTT was sold by Premier Motors Co Birmingham in 1932. A Velocette dating certificate supplied suggests it was one of a batch of machines for the 1932 TT. The frame has been changed from 4245 to 5005, likely explaining the 1934 dating. There is no paperwork to indicate why this has been changed, but clearly it was done very early in its life. The current vendor purchased the machine as a restoration project and completed the restoration in 2005. Chris Odling overhauled the engine and gearbox for this machine. We have been advised the Velocette was running extremely well until it was laid up in 2014. It comes complete with a current V5C, VMCC and Velocette Owner’s Club certificates. Recommissioning will be required before use.
