A (free) trip down memory lane

by

We’ve been digging through the archive and found this issue of The Motor Cycle from August 1923.

It’s a fascinating read with page after page of original adverts. Find out what a sleeve valve engine is. Get a shop-soiled Harley for £95 or a brand new A.J.S for £60. Read a road test for the latest 249cc Velocette. There’s a brilliant questions and replies page where you’ll find out how to stop valve clatter – and just how serious is piston slap? Oh, and petrol is 8½d a gallon!
