1954 Ariel Square Four MK II Beautifully Accurately Restored & Rare
I am pleased to offer this beautifully and accurately restored 1954 Ariel Square Four MK II. Engine Number is PL269, The VIN on the headstock is H1F-08071. Restored to a high degree with no modifications. Mileage is 12,XXX and is believed to original and accurate. Bike was very accurately cosmetically restored in 2019. These are rare and hard to find in this condition with no mods. Runs very smoothly.
This motorcycle has been part of the owner’s collection for a while, but it’s time to sell a few of his bikes. Tank, side covers, and rear fender look beautiful. Brakes work great. Shifts exactly the way it should. The condition is exactly what it looks like in the photos and needs absolutely nothing to ride, show, and enjoy. If you’d like any additional photos of any particular part of the motorcycle, please let me know. I can also take a video of the motorcycle running.
This particular bike was put together by Chuck Walton. Chuck has re-built over seventy-five Square Four engines and is considered to be one of the foremost experts on this model.
Chuck rebuilt the engine and transmission and installed all the upgrades available. Besides new pistons, valves, and lower bearings, the engine has a Morgo oil pump, Mark I rods, German head gasket, and the cylinder barrels have had timeserts installed in the threaded holes to help prevent future head gasket problems. The transmission and primary case have also been machined by Homer Knapp to accept modern seals and prevent leakage.
The magneto and charging system are all OEM and working correctly. Also, it is very common on the Square Four for the crank oil passages to become plugged up. Square Fours will throw a connecting rod due to the cranks getting plugged up if this is not addressed! The oil passages and sludge traps on this bike were fully cleaned, and as stated before, a new high volume Morgo oil pump was installed, as well as an aftermarket oil filter kit to eliminate this issue.
Seller has clear title with the motorcycle.
If you would like to inspect the bike or ask any questions, please email or contact me.
