Remember that huge barn find of over 180 vintage British motorcycles that made its way to the U.K. not long ago? It was November, 2022 when Hitchcocks Motorcycles first shared its amazing good fortune with the motorcycle world, giving an overview of what looked to be an absolute sea of classic British bikes and parts.
In addition to at least 180 whole motorcycles, Hitchcocks said that the whole collection it had shipped overseas from the U.S. filled five entire sea cargo shipping containers. Over 50 tons alone were spare parts for a lot of bygone bikes—mostly British, with some Americans and other bikes strewn here and there for good measure.
