Property of a deceased's estate
1978 CCM TR350 Trials
Registration no. XMO 95T (see text)
Frame no. 78TR11
Engine no. none

Clews Competition Motorcycles (CCM) came into being in 1972 when its proprietor Alan Clews purchased the stock of BSA's defunct competitions department. Clews had already gained plenty of experience in developing his own BSA-based scramblers and the acquisition gave him the opportunity to offer complete machines for sale. He finally abandoned the BSA-based design in the early 1980s, merging his company with Armstrong and switching to Rotax powerplants.

This CCM belonged to the current vendor's late father and is believed to be number '11' (as per the frame number) of the 105 TR350s produced.

Restored in 2015, this CCM is fitted with a freshly built engine (the original engine being stolen) believed to be constructed using BSA B44 and/or B50 components; that said, we are uncertain of the exact engine capacity. Since restoration the CCM has not been used; we are advised that it was run once, showing good oil flow, but requires the carburation to be set up. The machine is offered partially restored and in need of completion (the tank and seat are only loosely fitted). Accordingly, prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves with regard to this motorcycle's originality, completeness, engine composition and mechanical condition prior to bidding.

'XMO 95T' is recorded in the HPI and DVLA databases but there are no documents offered with this Lot. Prospective bidders must satisfy themselves to the validity/status of the VRN and the successful purchaser is responsible for applying for a registration certificate. Accompanying spares including a cylinder barrel; mudguard; engine bash plate; two pairs of original Marzocchi shock absorbers; and sundry other parts.
Offered without key
