Running Barn Find – 1937 Ariel RH Racer

In England, Race by Abhi1 Comment

You probably wouldn’t guess from the cosmetic state of this bike, but this Ariel Red Hunter racer recently got a new spark plug and some gas and it actually fired up. It’s obviously still going to need plenty of work, but this is a very cool find.

The bike was apparently raced in AMA Expert by Ray Goff and James Cook, both Michigan natives. The seller believes it was last put in short track duty due to the sprocket setup, and apparently the seller spoke to Al Knapp, who remembered Cook on this bike. Might be fun to track down the remaining history on this bike as you bring it back to life!
