Description

Here we have a lovely 1921 3. 5HP 500cc side valve Sunbeam flat tank motorcycle.

I am selling it on behalf of a VMCC club member who is no longer comfortable riding.

I shall be assisting with the sale through to completion but it will be collected from the owners V5c registered address
and full payment will be made to him on collection. He has owned it since 2011 and completed many vintage runs. It has
a period Amal carburettor fitted and it starts and runs beautifully and I am told a joy to ride.
It also comes with its original nickel Brown & Barlow carburettor but runs sweater I am told with the Amal.
(Please note: Picture 8 shows the reflection of my hands taking the picture and not a problem with the paint on the tank)

Often dubbed the ‘Gentleman’s Motorcycle’ it is beautifully made and of slightly larger scale than
most smaller flat tank makers making it also suitable for the taller gentleman.

It’s registration is two letters and four number and is non transferable.

Nothing needed and ready for this summers vintage rides and runs!

Any questions please ask.

All sensible offers will be carefully considered.
