AUCTION ADDRESS Hangar 113 Bicester Heritage Buckingham Road Bicester Oxfordshire OX26 5HA 1949 MOTOM 48CC MOPED (LOT 515) FRAME NO. NOT VISIBLE ENGINE NO. 12A 5209 Founded in Italy in 1947 and active until the early 1970s, Motom was unusual among European manufacturers of mopeds and ultra-lightweight motorcycles in favouring the four-stroke engine. Pressed-steel spine frames were another Motom trademark although, as time progressed, models with tubular frames were introduced and proprietary Peugeot and Züdapp two-stroke engines adopted. Apparently an older restoration, this 48cc Motom moped comes with an old-style Italian logbook (issued in Rome in 1951) recording the year of manufacture as 1949. The machine has the overhead-valve engine and three-speed gearbox. Offered for re-commissioning, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire a European four-stroke moped of a type rarely seen in the UK. £1,200 - 1,800 €1,300 - 2,000 To be sold without reserve As with all Lots in the Sale, this Lot is sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
