Between 1904 and 1971, one of several motorcycle manufacturers in Birmingham, Velocette was a family-owned firm selling almost as many hand-built motorcycles during its lifetime as the mass-produced machines from the likes of Triumph and Norton. Veloce, while small, was a great technical innovator and many of its patented designs were commonplace on motorcycles today, including the positive-stop foot shift and swinging arm rear suspension with hydraulic dampers. Renowned for the quality of its products, the company was "always in the picture" in international motorcycle racing from the mid-1920s through to the 1950s, culminating in two 350cc World Championship titles.

This Velocette was used on many scrambles early in its life, converted to telescopic forks with a MOV engine way back in the 1980s. At some point, the frame has been changed and does not match the V5. It was purchased by the late vendor in 1997, who then restored the machine and used it sparingly. We have been advised the machine was running earlier this year. It comes complete with an old V5, a photo of the Velocette documentation and notes. An old continuation RF60 from 1952 and a Dating Certificate from the Velocette Owner’s Club.
