KENTISH WHEEL

-

Now here really is a forgotten motorcycle. It appears to have been built solely in 1908 and was a copy of a Triumph single with a single valve engine, belt drive, and diamond frame. However, it also appears that people thought that if they could buy the real thing, why did they need to purchase a copy? So they didn’t. Other than that, we could discover absolutely no other informatio­n, and while we presume it was made in the

Garden of England, we cannot even confirm that. We include it simply because the Kentish Wheel is such a splendid name for a motorcycle.
