Basically, the steering is the same, just heavier duty to cope with the increased weight. Also there is a spring arrangement at the top of the forks that was Triumph's idea to deal with the rough roads. In fact it just elongates the wheelbase and makes it like riding a greyhound dog!! 😮😊
Nice! I have got one of these antique steampunk looking engines (with Burman 2speed gearbox) but it has been stolen from my barn 😢 Now I have some motorized bicycles from 1950s-70s and one modern chinese but they are 2-stroke
I would love to take a bike like this. Mod it just enough so I can carry camping gear and extra fuel and travel the back roads from Nebraska, Wyoming to Montana.
Now THAT is what you call a motorcycle, she may be old and a bit finicky but she will still be here when we are all dead and buried . May she give you many years of service .....take care of her 👍. Peace out ✌
That is the gear lever. The bike has 2 primary chains and the lever operates clutches to engage either one or the other clutches. Unfortunately it slips a bit so I have to hold it in gear. Normally I use an inner tube rubber band around the gear lever and ignition advance lever behind it yo hold it in gear.
Lookin forward to building a modern 1 but w/ the details of that genré. In 1907 a guy w/ a 40 h.p., small air-cooled V8 (? c.i.) hit 135 mph, as the vid said.
The 1909 P&M was owned by the South Australian Agents and in 1934 took part in the a Rally. It was then sold in 1962 to an enthusiast that tidied it up but could not get it running. I purchased the bike in about 1999 and got it running but the timing gears were very worn and I was afraid the teeth might break off the gear so i made new gears. If you look at my channel you will see some other P&M Videos. Are you in Russia? ru-vid.com/show-UCKJylkFof7Wpjf2KsELEneg Regards, David.
I LOVE this little car! Do you still have your Velorex? If so, I wonder if I might ask a favor. I am building a model of one and I need some measurements of the tube frame. Is this something you would be able to help with?
