WARRINGTON.- H&H Classics will offer five brand new, never registered bikes which have been kept in private collections and are now up for auction at their sale on April 7th which will be held online only due to the Coronavirus.

Mark Bryan of H&H Bike Dept says: “It is unusual to have one such motorbike in our sales so to have no fewer than five will doubtless attract a lot of attention from Norton, Ducatti, Triumph and Suzuki enthusiasts. The bikes range in estimates from £6,000 to £60,000.”

The JPS F1 Norton is a limited run of race replica's made in 1990. They use the 588cc Wankel Rotary engine, similar to the race machines. What makes it very rare is that it’s never been registered or used!

The 2014 1199 and 2016 1299 Ducati “Super Leggera” or "Super Light" made mostly of magnesium, carbon fibre and titanium and each with 200+hp making them superbikes in the truest sense of the word.

Long-time biker and bike enthusiast Sally Peace, 60, bought a raffle ticket for £2.00 to win a brand new 1977 motorbike when she visited the National Motorcycle Museum in the summer 2019 and to her delight found in October that she had won the draw for the Triumph T160V Trident.

A keen motorbike rider since 1977 when she fell in love with a Suzuki, her winning raffle ticket was one of thousands sold by the National Motorcycle Museum to win the Triumph. Based in mid Wales Sally, a health carer, is struggling with health issues herself and needs an operation which the sale of the Triumph will fund. She says she was overjoyed when she heard that she had won the bike and very sad to be selling it, but her health issues make it a priority.

Never registered and in unused “as new” condition, the bike is expected to sell for circa £10,000 - £12,000 at auction with H&H Classics on April 7th at the National Motorcycle Museum.
Sally says it has been a tough decision to sell the bike so soon but ill health means that she cannot use the motorbike and so approached H&H to sell it at auction.

The bike was bought by Museum founder, the late Roy Richards, in the 1980’s from a bike dealer and was displayed in the museum up to the 2000’s when it was replaced by another similar model.

The museum decided to put the bike into their popular “Classic Bike Raffle”, and it proved to be one of the most popular bikes ever raffled.

Mark Bryan of H&H Classics comments: “Even at the top estimate of £12,000 this bike is a steal, given that it is in perfect brand new condition and is a real collector’s piece.”
