Scott 1927 Super Squirrel 600cc 2 cyl ts 2603
US$15,790.90
Scott 1927 Super Squirrel two speed 598cc two-stroke twin frame # 203 engine # Y 3553 AAlfred Scott, a gifted Yorkshire engineering genius, started experimenting with twin cylinder two-stroke power around the year 1900, when he mounted his little air-cooled twin in front of the steering head of his Premier bicycle.He kept on refining his design and by 1910 the open-framed machine, so much different from standard motorcycle practice, was attracting more and more attention.In 1912 Frank Applebee led the Senior TT race from start to finish on his Scott, averaging almost 50 mph over the bad roads in the island.It was the first TT win by a two-stroke.This feat was repeated the next year when Tim Wood won on a Scott.In the early twenties the type name “ Squirrel” appeared for a new sports model which gained great popularity for its speed and lightness. For 1925 the Super Squirrel was introduced as a development from the 1924 T.T. machines and for the 1926 season the Flying Squirrel appeared as a highly tuned version of the Super Squirrel.The Super Squirrels and Flying Squirrels were available in 498cc and 596 cc capacities. This machine is fitted with BTH magneto and AMAC carburettor.It has been restored some time ago and runs fine.
