SWM was founded in Milan by Piero Sironi in 1971. They specialised in the manufacture of motorcycles for off-road competition and included trials, enduro, and motocross machines. The company went into liquidation in 1984, but then reappeared in 2014, announcing a new range of machines for the market.
The vendor advises us that this machine is an ex-factory enduro machine ridden by a rider named Puigdemont, although there is no evidence for this. Accordingly, prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the authenticity of this machine prior to bidding. An older restoration, the SWM will require re-commissioning prior to further use. Fitted with lights, it has conventional twin-shock rear suspension, steel petrol tank, lightweight plastic mudguards and side panels, with drum brakes front and rear. There is no documentation, and whilst the engine turns over, its mechanical condition is unknown, and it is sold strictly as viewed.
