Ern Serls Collection Sold

2021 saw the sale of the late Ern Serls’ collection of 13 running motorcycles plus projects and parts. Ernie, as we knew him, was a respected font of knowledge on all things Ariel and was well known for having very reliable and well sorted bikes. I don’t recall ever seeing one of his bikes on a backup trailer, in fact I’m sure he would have hidden in the bush if he ever broke down rather than tarnish the Ariel name. They all sold very quickly and the parts were split into two smaller collections, the pre 1930’s parts going to Victoria and the remainder is still local here in the South West of WA. The project bikes plus 12 of the 13 running bikes sold within WA with only one escaping to the ACT.
