The Squirrel name was used for Scott motorcycles since 1921 but with the death of the founder Alfred Angas Scott in 1923 the unorthodox Scott two-stroke motorcycles began to become more conventional. Development of the three-speed Scott Flying Squirrel began in 1922 as the company was in severe debt and faced receivership. Launched at the 1926 Earls Court motorcycle show, the Flying Squirrel was expensive - nearly twice the cost of a sporting four-stroke motorcycle of the time. Updated version were produced. In 1950, the rights were bought by the Birmingham based Aerco Company and in 1956 they produced what are known as the Birimingham Scotts.

The vendor has owned this beautifully restored Scott for around 40 years. Within that ownership, the machine was restored to a concours standard and then not used much since. The restoration costs for this machine are said to have been approximately £10,000. Light recommissioning will be required before use, due to storage. The Scott is offered with an old-style V5.
