Enjoy a piece of British motorcycling heritage with this 1958 Ariel
Square Four Mk II, one of the most distinctive and refined
motorcycles of its era. At the heart of the machine is the 997cc
square four engine, featuring two transverse crankshafts, which
delivers smooth, linear power with a character all its own. The
4-speed Burman gearbox provides an engaging, connected ride, and
for those willing to open it up, the Square Four was even claimed
to reach over 100 mph, a remarkable feat for a bike of this
period.
This is a rider-quality example, with 10,197 miles reflecting a
life enjoyed rather than over-restored perfection. The upright
seating position and classic ergonomics make it comfortable for
longer rides, while the plunger-style rear suspension and
telescopic front fork provide the authentic handling and feel that
enthusiasts love.
Finished in gloss Ariel Black, the bike retains its twin exhausts
with the unmistakable growl of a Square Four, along with
period-correct Lucas lighting and Smiths instruments, keeping it
fully authentic. Perfect for weekend outings, classic rallies, or
open-road adventures, owning this bike is about riding a piece of
history with personality and soul.
