The Velocette Thruxton was a sporting motorcycle produced by Velocette between 1965 and 1971. Revealed at the 1964 Earls Court Show, it was the final development of Velocette's antiquated pushrod single, the Venom. Sometimes referred to as the Venom Thruxton or simply Thruxton, some surviving examples could be 'upgraded' replicas based on the Venom or Viper, as many parts in the range were interchangeable. Due to the high values involved and possibility of fakes, a register was established by a member of the Velocette Owners Club.

This Velocette Thruxton was restored around 8 years ago. An all correct numbers machine it has a copy of the works record card on file. The older restoration holds up well since completion. Recommissioning will be required before use due to an oil leak. This motorcycle is accompanied by a current V5C.
