Debenham Sisters
Betty and Nancy Debenham, with their dog, Poncho, were keen motorcyclists. Nancy won a Gold Medal at Brooklands in 1926.
The Debenham Sisters
The Parilla company didn't just build motorcycles. They did venture into other fields. Here are some of the other products that the factory built.

In 1960, the factory introduced two new industrial generators. There was a 400cc model and a larger 480cc version. Most generators were upright with a few built in a horizontal position. Production stopped around 1965.
Go-Karts
Around 1961, the company branched out into the new field of go-kart racing. Kart motors are still being built today with the Parilla name. [1]
