'celebrates the eccentricity of these fascinating machines' Motor Sport & Leisure
Product Description
Scott motorcycles never fail to draw a crowd. Conceived 100 years ago by an unorthodox Yorkshireman who invented the vertical two-stroke twin and then placed his engine in an open frame machine, the Scott motorcycle was at the time viewed as beautiful, well-built and smooth - but certain eccentricities meant it was not always easy to ride. Jeff Clew's authoritative and fascinatingly illustrated book, re-issued to meet continuing demand, tells the full story of the machine described as 'the Bugatti of motorcycles'.
About the Author
Jeff Clew, an active motorcycle rider, restorer and author, decided to investigate the mystique of Scott ownership when a completely dismantled 1946/7 model became available. He has been closely associated with veteran and vintage machines since joining the Vintage Motor Cycle Club in 1949. A former Haynes Editorial Director, he lives near Yeovil, Somerset.
