Montgomery Motorcycles

W. Montgomery and Co of Bury St Edmunds was a well-known sidecar manufacturer who began producing motorcycles in 1905. William Montgomery moved the works to Coventry in 1911, and after WWI his son Jack managed the show, extending the range considerably. The firm survived the destruction of their works by fire in 1925 and the Great Depression a few years later. Production ceased shortly after the beginning of Hitler's war.

  1923-24 Bradshaw (oil-cooled)

Dear Sheldon,
searching on the web to find some detailed information on a pic showing my grandfather on a strange motorbike, I got the answer now. It's a 1929 Montgomery with a 490ccm JAP engine. Hope that this is worth an addition to the list ...
Best regards,
