Venetian Blue and Silver - with no pinstriping. Health sadly forces the sale of this very collectible 1935 Harley-Davidson VLD. The Harley-Davidson VL model motorcycle was a bold new design for one of the few motorcycle companies not ruined by the stock market crash of 1929. Harley’s traditional Olive Green paint - which had been used with little variation since 1917 - was dropped as the standard color after 1932. It was replaced by more vibrant two-tones. Flathead V-twins, which had replaced F-head versions in the late 1920s, came in 45- and “Big Twin” 74-cubic-inch versions. These were landmark engines; the 45 would continue to power three-wheeled Servi-Cars into the Seventies, and the Big Twin would form the basis for the famous EL overhead-valve Knucklehead” of 1936. Harley had a strong dealer network and the right products at the right time, and things were beginning to look up by 1934. The VL model line marks a very important era in the history of the Harley-Davidson Motor Company.

1977 Yamaha Hallman HL 500 Replica

Lot #231 (Sale Order 158 of 221)

1977 Restored Yamaha HL 500 Hallman MX Works Replica; one of only approximately 130 built making this bike very rare and desirable. This is a complete restoration with no expense spared on any area. Originally, Torsten Hallman a four time factory Husqvarna factory rider and four time world 250 champion, quaintly called 'Mr. Motocross' built an aftermarket kit that easily adapted to the Yamaha TT500 and XT500 motorcycles. This replica kit included frame, swing arm, foot pegs and brake pedal. Hallman and White Brothers also promoted a swing arm specifically for the project as well. The Hallman (HL) project required a TT/XT500 and a HL kit, increasing the rider's monetary investment therefore limiting the number of MX riders that could afford to build one of these rarely seen or ridden motorcycles. Two years after Torsten signed to develop the HL motocross bike, Yamaha won the 250 world championship and was a huge success helping Yamaha to be a dominant force in motorcycle MX racing to date. The HL scored Grand Prix points but was also noted as being a fantastic PR-project. It was on nearly every motorcycle magazine's front page, numerous articles and pictures of the incredible Yamaha 500cc motor and single cylinder bike! XT500 and TT500 sales sky rocketed resulting in a phenomenal success for Yamaha and Torsten Hallman. Selling here today is a restored Yamaha TT500 HL replica bike. Sold with a Bill of Sale.

1935 Vincent-HRD Comet

Lot #236 (Sale Order 163 of 221)

The Vincent-HRD marque originated in 1928 when Philip C Vincent acquired the name, jigs, tools and patterns of the recently liquidated HRD Company. (HRD stood for Howard Raymond Davies, the Isle of Man TT winner who had founded the firm in 1924). Like Davies before him, Vincent relied on proprietary engines until increasing dissatisfaction with suppliers led to the creation of Vincent’s own 500cc single in 1934, which was later doubled up to create the legendary Series-A Rapide V-twin. Post-war this situation was reversed, with an all-new V-twin appearing first, in May 1946, followed by the single-cylinder version in 1949. The shape of the crankcases narrows the indentation to what is known as “an intermediate” of which there were less than 10. The engine number M637 should read C63 – possibly changed by the factory as was often done to these early ‘A’ Singles. Sold with a Bill of Sale.

1948 Indian Scout Big Base

Lot #247 (Sale Order 174 of 221)

One of the fifty 1948 “Big Base” Scouts originally built by the Indian factory. The 50 made were numbered 101-150; this motorcycle has an engine number of FDH116. Originally owned and raced by Bob Lutz in the greater Midwest from 1948-1965. He crashed hard in 1965, and gave up racing, intending on restoring the bike back to original some day. Bob had originally called the bike the “Goat.” Originally it was painted bright green (as evidenced by the spare hill climb wheel). Bob had modified the bike for dirt track racing, by using a lighter “junior scout” front end, tank, and removal of all road racing equipment. He used a 2 into 1 exhaust system which he claimed resulted in more low end torque, needed for dirt track racing. Only 50 of these 648 Scouts were made by Indian Motorcycle Company for sale to “existing Indian racers.” They were not sold to the general public. It is not known how many of the 50 bikes originally produced survive today. Some estimate seven, of which five are in road racing trim, and two are dirt track racers, this being one of the two. This bike now sports new period correct paint. Sold with a Bill of Sale.

Lot #249 (Sale Order 176 of 221)

Restored to run but has not had fluids or been started since restoration was completed. 1929 was the last year for Harley to sell the J series motorcycle. It was the only year the J series were factory equipped with the dual bullet headlights, the electric switch panel and ammeter on the handlebars, and the 4 tube Pan O'Pipes' exhaust muffler set up. In its day the Harley Davidson JDH, known as the Two-Cam Harley, was the fastest road bike the company ever offered to the public and likely the fastest bike on the streets. Reportedly it could reach speeds of 85-100 mph with the proper tuning. The Two-Cam engine earned a lasting reputation for its power and acceleration in racing. Harley Davidson provided the ultimate motorcycle by joining its specialized racing engine with the chassis of their standard JD street motorcycle. Nearly 24,000 motorcycles were produced by Harley Davidson in 1929, yet there were probably less than 100 of these very special JDH models built. Not every dealer was able to secure one. The JDH sold for more than many of the automobiles of the day. Sold with a Bill of Sale.

Presently this bike has been retrofitted with a 4.5hp Honda four stroke engine with centrifugal clutch and chain drive with electric start.

The original engine is a 124cc OHV and all accessories including a complete service manual comes with it. The retrofit did not require any welding or modifications to the frame and can be completely restored to original in a very short time. The scooter has never been laid down and is in great original condition. Titled in Washington by engine number.
