Description

  • Well known for the four-valve cylinder head made famous by winning the Ulster Grand Prix
  • The Rudge Ulster was basically a race bike on the road and capable of 100mph, quite a feat in 1928 for a 500cc single
  • This example, first registered in 1947, is presented in mostly unrestored condition
  • Has run recently but would benefit from recommissioning before road use
  • UK-registered on a current V5C
