The Shuttleworth Speed Demon

The actual bike (Shuttleworth Speed Demon) from the 1935 George Formby film - "No Limit"..

Filmed on the Isle of Man at a cost of £30,000.

The last scene in the film required him to push the bike over the finishing line in scorching weather....it needed several takes, until he finally collapsed with heat exhaustion and a doctor was called.

This clip ended up being used in the actual film..
