1928 OHV Calthorpe 348cc

Priced at £10,000. This lovely rare Calthorpe is one which Andy has had in his personal collection for over 20 years. He is putting it on the market but it is a reluctant sale. The bike comes with an old style log book issued in 1950 which states that the bike is a 'Popular' model. There is an old report on the bike made out in 2002 when the bike was assessed at the workshop before being stored which says that the engine starts easily and runs lovely. The fins are in good order with no bad thinning out. Very quiet mechanically especially considering the valve gear is out in the open air. The three speed burman hand change gearbox behaves itself and the four spring clutch is a one finger job with no signs of slip or drag. Bearing in mind that this report was made out in 2002, the bike has not been touched since so it should be relevant to this day, however the bike will be checked over and ran again. Comes with the latest DVLA V5C registration document, is registered for free road tax under the 'Historic Vehicle' class & has the added benefit of being MOT exempt.
