The nacelle looks like Triumph rather than Ariel. Perhaps a Triumph one was used because the Ariel one would have been too small to accommodate the four instruments and a warning light.
I’d happily take the two Harleys, sell them, and buy this machine. In my opinion, it’s far more interesting, looks beautifully constructed, and wasn’t designed as a posing machine for those in need of an ego boost.
Good engineering, but looks a mismatch, with such an old engine with open valvegear in a swinging arm frame.. And the modern colour? Chip that and you could never touch it up. But, I guess someone will love it.
Fantastic sound and looks awesome 👌🏻
It will no doubt be bought for the engine
Beauty wish BSA had carried on with their V twins after the 30's
I reckon that's spectacular.
A bitster for £20k, someone has more money than sense - each to their own.
Its a nice bitsa, but really....
Cheap at the price. You can pay a hundred thousand pounds for that well-known bitza, the Brough Superior 680.

Lovely old bike, and full of character. Does it have a drip feed to the rockers or is it an oilcan job?
Good luck...
Was that originally a 650 twin frame?
Abits and pieces good luck with the price,may be just the engine ?
Who would want two Harleys ?
looks a fine job, but you buy two harleys for that money.
Or a concourse condition 500 Goldie, and still have lots change to insure it, and buy lots of autosol! 😅😅

Why doesn't somebody have those pot holes filled Peter's arse must be killing him 😂
