The Viceroy was a scooter introduced by the British motorcycle manufacturer Veloce Ltd in 1960.[1] Only 700 were sold before the model was discontinued in 1964. [2] The Viceroy was considered an unusual design, as the transverse two-stroke horizontally opposed twin cylinder 250cc engine was placed at the front of the scooter.[3]
