Although recognisably derived from Alfred Angas Scott's earliest designs, the Scott motorcycle of the 1920s gained steadily in both complexity and weight. A three-speed countershaft gearbox had been introduced for 1923 and as a result of the racing programme, there was a new duplex fame and bigger brakes for 1927. For the traditionalists, the old-style, lightweight, two-speed model soldiered on, remaining in production into the early 1930s. This two-speed Super Squirrel appears to be a well executed older restoration to original specification and was last taxed and MoT’d for road use in 1998/99; thus the usual safety checks are advised before returning it to the road – the control cables in particular being in obvious need of attention. An ideal ‘Banbury’ mount, this delightful Scott two-speeder is equipped with acetylene lighting set, knee grips, luggage rack and bulb horn, and offered with old/new Swansea V5 documents and expired MoT.
