Alfred Wiseman Ltd of Glover Street, Birmingham made motorcycles under the Weaver, Sirrah and Verus brand names during the Vintage period with the latter being its flagship marque. Debuting in 1919, the Verus range included 211cc and 269cc two-stroke engines of its own manufacture as well as larger proprietary four-stroke units from Blackburne and JAP.

Appearing to be substantially complete even down to its branded footplates, this rare surviving Verus is thought to date from circa 1920. Part of a collection of rare and unusual Vintage motorcycles, it has been off the road and unregistered for years. Pleasingly retaining its Verus engine, the lightweight single will require recommissioning / renovation prior to use. Entered from a deceased estate, it is being sold without reserve or paperwork. An age-related number plate will have to be applied for should a new owner wish to return it to the King’s Highway.
