Description

I am retiring from competitive trials competition as am now 81. hence my reason for sale.
the sprite was bought as a replacement for my pre 65 bsa c15 trials bike as the c15 is much too heavy for me now, after 60 odd years of competition in acu trials.
my sprite was restored by the previous owner in 2023. it has a villiers 9e 197cc engine. Having a new rod kit, rebore, piston and electrix world electronic ignition fitted by villiers ltd. It has also had, this year, new gear selector and chains and bearings fitted as neccessary. It has renthal bars, british hub company hubs, 35mm front forks.
please see the photos, and if any further information needed, please email me.
sprite motorcycles were manufactured in england by frank hipkin who was an ace trials rider of the era. This particular machine went to europe for the first few years of it's competition life, and returned to the uk in 2010, where it was registered with an age related uk vrn. The reg number is non transferable. The v5c is registered in my name. this particular sprite was manufactured in 1965 and has an age related uk non replaceable registration number.
