P&M Motorcycles

Panther Motorcycles (P&M)

Built from 1900 to 1965 (1967)

Phelon & Moore, Cleckheaton, Yorkshire
Best known for their venerable rigid framed "sloper" singles, Panther also produced lightweight fourstrokes and Villiers-powered twostrokes from their works in Cleckheaton, Yorkshire between 1900 and 1967. Panther's 600cc sloper was regarded as one of the most durable sidecar mounts available, and a considerable number of these have survived. 

Panther History

N.B.
1. There was also Panther built in France (La Panthère) by S.M.A.C of St. Etienne - see S.M.A.C.
2. The Panther name was also used by a German firm, Pantherwerke AG.

Photo
Panther Redwing?
This photo shows my father on a Panther in either 1932 or 1938 (the poster in backgound tells us that). Is it possible to identify the model any further?
France

My guess is that it's closer to a '32 than a '38 because it has leather toolbags (38 had metal toolboxes) and the man's outfit is more like late 1920s than late 1930s. Ed.

Panther 75
I have what I think is A 1955 350cc Model 75 which has been in storage (garage) for 30 years.The engine number is 55JS739C and Chassis F10094. The seat is a double seat and seemed to hav been recovered a long while back. It needs new tyres and to be restored. As is in a warm environment its condition is fair for its age and pretty much complete. I bought it when I was 19 as a project when I retire!

unknown Panther
197cc Villiers
I have found a Panther and have a hard time to find info about it. Acording to the engine number it is a 197cc Villiers. The engine number just says V 8556. From the panters owners club I know that the code should consist of YY XX NN M stating the year, model, number and modification. The origional painting has been overpainted so I can not read the model.
........
Now I am really confused. I clicked from your link to a page that had every Villiers enginge posted, but mine is not listed. Maybe the engine number in this case does not indentify the model. My engine looks like a four stoke and is bigger than the engines shown. I will now try to find pictures of P&M engines to identify my bike. Thank you
