Velocette MSS Motorcycle 1954-1971


The Velocette MSS was built post-war until 1948 when it was then discontinued in order that production could be concentrated on the revolutionary LE. Powered by virtually the original 1935 designed 495cc long-stroke (81x96mm) engine, there was little to distinguish it from the last of the pre-war line. 1954 was the year the motorbike returned to a listing. Re-designed, the engine now all-alloy and of "square" dimensions (86x86mm), giving a capacity of 499cc. A sprung frame and two-level seating were other features. A popular sidecar machine, the model ran until 1971.
