JMC
There is a JMC motorcycle at the MOVE Museum Shepparton. Dating from about 1915, the machine has a 6 h.p. JAP v-twin engine and a Healey-style frame.
Little is known of its history. Saward writes that the fuel tank tank is inscribed "phone Windsor 2356. Fitzroy Street, South Melbourne". This would refer to the Junction Motor Cycle Exchange who began retailing Junction motorcycles in 1919.

The firm was established in 1902 and by 1918 was run by Rogers and Findlay. They remained in business until 1924, when Richard Findlay left. Tommy Rogers carried on as Rogers Bros.
