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.

On offer is a mostly original 1949 Scott Flying Squirrel. Amazingly, it had previously been in storage for over forty years before the current vendor purchased it. He set about conserving the Scott rather than restoring it, with a check-over of most of the components to make it a good running machine. The oil pump has been overhauled, with a receipt on file. The vendor has also rewired the Scott as the old wiring was in a poor state and now all the electrics are working as they should. Most of the paintwork is very original, with some touch-ups here and there. Accompanying the Scott are a current V5C, an old RF60, and continuation logbooks recording the previous owners.
