I’ve checked on the dvla website and the registration number is not recognised, which rather indicates that the bike has been scrapped .

Not a Squirrel, but a Super Squirrel, or Sports Squirrel, possibly a 1926 Flying Squirrel. Leeds registration. It might have been exported rather than scrapped…

Looking closely at the photo I think I can see a kickstart and aluminum gear shield so could be a 3 speed Sports Squirrel of àbout 1927

[BRIAN MARSHALL]

Yes Ian, I’ve put the photo onto Fullscreen, and can clearly see the kickstart boss.

Looks to be a sidecar outfit.
