STAFFORD SPRING

From the Peril Equipe; the Yellow Peril
The Bonhams Stafford Spring 2011 sale is tomorrow; I was priveleged to take a private viewing of the bikes before they come under the hammer.  An inspiring lot of machinery!
1922 ABC in very complete, and very dusty condition
Peril Equipe; supercharged sprint Triumph
Undoubtedly the star of the show, a matching-numbers 1934 Brough Superior SS100
Rare spare!  Barr and Stroud sleeve valve v-twin engine
1929 Douglas SW5 road racer
Peril Equipe; another sprint Triumph
Replica Gilera 4-cylinder racer
Variety is the spice of an auction
It could only be a Brough
Rare 1911 Pierce 4-cylinder
1925 Indian Prince 350cc single
It could only be Brooklands
1950 Aermacchi 125N
Big BSA 1,000cc v-twin
Douglas SW5 flywheel/clutch and BTH racing magneto
Fontana double-sided magnesium racing brake
A selection of Vincent twins
1913 PandM fiddly bits

1913 PandM running gear
1938 OEC JAP special, with watercooled engine
Charming, if heavy, is the watercooled engine...

Pierce 4 magneto
Norton International engine looking for a good home
