"This bike has been in a collection for 30+ years and is in great condition; it has not been tested or driven by BWA but appears to be simple to get up and running."

Description

The motorcycle is being sold as part of the owner's estate after spending over 30 years in a motorcycle collection. It is unregistered and lacks any registration or previous paperwork. This was most certainly a race bike in the 1950s, with its two Amal carburetor revs, tachometer alone, vented front brake, and racing saddle. The year model is difficult to determine; the engine number 77744 suggests a 1946 engine, while the frame number 33293 indicates an early 1950s frame.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    Everything in the engine is complete and the engine kicks over and the gears work fine. It appears to be well-kept. We haven't tested or started the bike yet, and it will need a thorough inspection and service.

  • Exterior condition:

    The paintwork is nice and clean, with good chrome details and straight alloy mudguards. The tank has no dents and the seat looks brand new. It was probably repainted 20+ years ago and is still in good condition. Some minor oxidation on the wheels and exhaust pipes.

  • General condition:

    Wonderful looking "Racing/Café Racer" that would look excellent in any collection or office space, and should be simple to get running again.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
