The Appeal
The Royal Enfield Interceptor Scrambler MK II is among the rarest variants of the celebrated 750cc parallel twin, a high-piped, scrambler-styled machine that represented the pinnacle of Royal Enfield's output before the Redditch factory's closure. Finding any example today is noteworthy; finding a matching-numbers motorcycle described by its vendor as completely original is a genuinely uncommon opportunity.
This 1969 example carries matching frame and engine numbers and underwent a conservative restoration approximately ten years ago. It has since been featured in a well-known specialist motorcycle magazine. The vendor states it is in very good condition throughout and functioning well, and it holds an ASI–FIVA certificate confirming its historical and collectible significance.
Its provenance is well traced: originally sold in the USA, it was brought to Greece by its owner, a retired airline pilot, before being imported into Italy by the current seller. A copy of the original Ohio Title and the Greek registration document accompany the motorcycle, along with the original owner's manual, parts list, and sales brochure. A generous selection of new original spare parts is also included in the sale.
