More snaps from a recent visit to Sammy Miller's Museum.
Zenith Gradua. |
175cc AKD. An unusual engine size for a twenties Brit bike. Also unusual to be such a sporting lightweight. AKD is Abingdon King Dick - the same company as made the spanners. |
Sweet little ohv motor on the AKD. It is unconventional in having the push rods behind the motor and parallel valves. Twin port and outside flywheel add to the sporting spec. |
Stanger two stroke v-twin. A real oddity. The brochure is in the RDM archive here. |
Complex leaf spring rear suspension on a Royal Ruby. |
The Museum has a good collection of first generation scooters from the immediate post WW1 era. This is a Kingsbury. |
Stunning Pierce Arrow 4. |
The Pierce's motor. |
1920 Velocette Ladies Model. |
Whippet scooter 1919. |
Close up on the Whippet. Neat little ohv motor. |
Gorgeous Henderson. |
Another view of the Henderson. |
Yes, a good collection of vintage and veteran fours. Here's an FN. |
And the FN's power plant. |
1910 Minerva v-twin. |
Great front number plate fixing on the Minerva. |
And the Minerva in all its glory. |
