Sprite Trials Motorcycle, circa 1969
Engine Number 250217
Sold as seen
Founded by Frank Hipkin, a successful rider in the 1960s, a range of scrambles and trials models were developed over ten years. These were sold in kit form and the assemblies housed third party engines, until Sprite developed its own 405 engine. Sprite ceased production in 1974. This example is a restoration project and is sold as seen.
