The Velocette MAC was a reliable single-cylinder machine. The MAC coped well with the low-grade post-war petrol and was a popular commuter and touring motorcycle. Although they started as innovators, Velocette failed to keep pace with developing technology and production ended in 1959.
This 1953 Velocette MAC is an early sprung frame example. Purchased by the Velocette enthusiast owner some time ago and used on many Velocette runs and events, it has always been maintained to a good order by him. In his ownership, he has fitted a concentric carburettor and a modern electronic regulator. It has not been used in recent years and may require some recommissioning before placing it back on the road, however, it is offered with a file of paperwork and a current V5C.
