ABOUT OUR BUSINESS. We (Will and Tom Swinnerton) are life-long classic vehicle enthusiasts and have run our business since 1983 so 2013 is our 30th Anniversary! Our motorcycle business focuses on the 1970s and we aim to have for sale top quality original specification motorcycles from this period. Our interest takes in bikes from the late sixties to the mid eighties and especially Japanese "super bikes" of this era. However, we aim to stock a good cross section of machines from this golden age of motorcycling. As well as Kawasaki Z900's (our speciality) and Honda CB750s you will also find some tempting two strokes, together with a few Triumphs, Harleys and Moto Guzzis (etc etc) in our barn full of bikes for sale! We are always looking to buy original and exceptional examples. Most of our stock is bought in the UK, though we will consider European and North American origin machines too. Our bikes are normally roadtested, serviced and MOTed before sale and most will qualify for cheaper classic insurance. |

We also have many years experience dealing in classic cars especially Jaguars and there are usually an interesting selection available here too! However, our real love remains the Kawasaki Z1.... So if you are buying or selling we hope to do business and that you enjoy your visit to our web site. Thanks for visiting us! Will Swinnerton & Tom Swinnerton, Classic Bikes Ltd. June 2013.
