1948 Scott Flying Squirrel

In England, Sport by Abhi2 Comments

Released in 1926, the Scott Flying Squirrel was an interesting motorcycle that placed third in the ’29 Isle of Man TT. A water-cooled 598cc twin, this is one of the coolest sounding two-strokes I’ve ever heard – riders used to call it the “Scott Yowl”.

For more on the Scott, check out this video of a ’28 model from Hoxton Moto:

By ’48, the bike had evolved with Dowty Oleomatic forks and full width alloy hubs. This specific Flying Squirrel is claimed to be an original, un-molested example. The carb has been rebuilt and you’ll get a new battery and coil.
