Registration No: CL 8930
Frame No: 34-2023
MOT: Exempt
The 1920s saw the famous Model 'H' began to be updated and this gradually saw the introduction of the chain drive, a three-speed gearbox of Triumph design and a multi-plate clutch with a shock absorber mounted on an extension to the gearbox main shaft. This feature was called a spring drive and hence the name SD was adopted for the new 550cc model.
Little is known of the history of the machine, however, it is reputed to have had one ‘doctor owner’ for many years and with the 'CL' prefix registration indicating an original registration in Norfolk, there is a potential ‘research opportunity’ for the new owner! An older restoration, that appears to be complete and unmolested, 'CL 8930' has had little use in recent years, although reported to have been started recently it will require a thorough check over before use. Of note, it is fitted with a rare and comparatively early electric lighting system complete with mag dyno. The sidecar appears structurally sound and in good repair and will be removed for transport to the sale and loosely attached at sale, enabling straightforward transport post sale. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire an ‘oily rag’ Vintage Combination.
