1959 Other Makes Velocette Viper 350 (1959)
Up for auction is a running and driving 1959 Velocette Viper 350 with original patina. I am by no means a Velo expert but I will try and describe it to the best of my ability. The story I was told from the previous owner (elderly gentleman who had owned since the mid 70's) was that the bike had at one time been owned by Richard Renstrom, a famous motocycle writer who has written several books on classic motorcycles and who started the Idaho Vintage Motorcycle Club. The bike had some work done in the early/mid 80's .2016-08-07 04:47:27Houston, Texas, United States4614000
