The full potential of Rudge’s four-valves-per-cylinder design was slow to emerge. In 1928 Graham Walker’s works ‘500’ became the first motorcycle to win a road race, the Ulster Grand Prix, at an average speed in excess of 80mph, a feat which led to the introduction of the legendary ‘Ulster’ sports model.

Unrestored and wearing fabulous history in the form of its patina, this machine was owned by Rudge enthusiast and chef Simon Morris. Over the years it has been modified into a "Sports Special" and even took part in the 1990 TT Classic Lap (provenance included). It has been off the road for 20 plus years and dry stored indoors. The engine turns with good compression and now is running ‘very well’. A great motorcycle for both the track and the road, and it is also Banbury Run eligible. Recently, the ‘Sports Special’ has had a new bearing in the gearbox and a top-end overhaul, new cables and new tyres with tubes.
