7-21 Update: This Velocette Venom is back up for sale with bidding up to $8,650 and the reserve not yet met
The first production motorcycle to hit an average speed of over 100 miles per hour over 24 hours, the Velocette Venom was the ‘big-brother’ to the Viper and was an evolution from the MSS. Powered by a 499cc four-stroke single, this bike became Velocette’s flagship and is thus highly sought after. As a pre ’62 model, this Venom (VIN: RS15077) would have come with Miller (and not Lucas) electrics, though the seller installed a new 12 volt system. You’ll also get a newly rebuilt (< than 50 miles) motor, clutch assembly, and more. Most paint is original and there are just a few minor cosmetic issues.
