November 2015 Scott Flying Squirrel | Triumph Speed Twin | RAF
Auction house Bonhams will be flogging a few motorcycles at its 10th December 2015 sale to be held at the Royal Air Force Museum at Hendon, North London. There's nothing to get excited about here. In fact, at present there are just five motorcycle lots. Specifically we're looking at a: 1934 Scott 498cc Flying Squirrel, est: £4,000 - £5,000 (above) 1926 AJS 350cc Model G6 'Big Port, est: £7,000 - £10,000 (below)
1953 Triumph 498cc Speed Twin, est: £7,000 - £8,000
1981 Triumph 744cc T140 Bonneville Royal Wedding, est: £4,000 - 6,000
c.1940 Ariel 348cc W/NG, est: £2,500 - £3,500 
There are eleven classic car lots; ten of which are four wheelers, and one of which is a Morgan three-wheeler. Some more lots will possibly be consigned as November passes into December. But that's the position as of today (3rd November 2015). These images are courtesy of Bonhams. 
If you're in the vicinity, the RAF Museum is an afternoon well spent. It ain't Duxford, but it's a more intimate place, and you're not so overwhelmed by the number and scale of the exhibits. Nevertheless, there's an impressive range of aircraft including: an Avro Lancaster bomber an Avro Vulcan bomber a BAe Harrier a Bristol Beaufighter a Boeing B17 "Flying Fortress" a Bristol Bulldog a Bristol Blenheim a British Aircraft Corporation Lightning a Consolidated Liberator a Curtiss Kittyhawk a de Havilland Mosquito ... plus a few Supermarine Spitfires, the odd Hawker Hurricane, a Eurofighter Typhoon, and dozens more cool and classic aircraft including a (controversial) Lockheed Martin Joint Strike Fighter. If you're into that kind of stuff, which we are, we can highly recommend this place. Just try not to step on too many school kids. You can find the Royal Air Force Museum at Grahame Park Way, London NW9 5LL. Admission is free. www.bonhams.com www.rafmuseum.org.uk — Big End |
