New for 1925, Scott's Super Squirrel was based on the 1924 TT machines. The most significant changes for this new model were water cooling for the cylinder head, and a different bore and stroke for the engine. This "Super" was acquired by the vendor's late father from the late Colin Missen, the well known veteran Triumph expert. It is accompanied by a V5C and continuation buff log book dating from 1938 which indicates that the original engine was probably no. Z9272 (498cc). The current 596cc engine dates from 1926, the same year as the rest of the machine. All Scott enthusiasts know that the "Z" 498cc & "Y" 596cc engines are interchangeable. The engine has been regularly turned over, but it has not been run for several years, and re-commissioning will be required. Prospective bidders should satisfy themselves as to the motorcycle's mechanical condition.
