1951 Velocette LE MkII 200cc at Andy Tiernans

Seems like a unique bike with hand start. I was surprised to see itstart in one crank.

My dad had one of these with the hand-starter in the very early 1960`s. It`s a shame some money wasn`t spent on this model giving it a decent paint job and a good tiding up, making it a little more desirable to sell. It really looks tatty for the money.

Many people prefer the original paint meanwhile instead of new paint, even if there are some scratches and rust

I interesting machine I own a Ural I like the smoothness of flat twins with vibes having ridden parallel twins and singles in cold weather I do not miss the white fingers from the vibes .

I never saw a starting method like that before. Cool!

My mate had one of these but he had terrible trouble finding reverse.
