Daring Motorcycles

Daring Cycles Poster (Very!)

Flat-tank two-stroke. Appears to be late 1920s. Built by Bonnet & Guyonnet.

Jean François Pilon recovered his great-grandfather's motorcycle. Apart from its sentimental value, it is unusual, dated 1920 and branded DARING . (At least, that's what it says on the tank).

Its engine is a Lutetia 2-stroke with left-hand intake (carburetor facing forward, therefore with forced induction) and right-hand exhaust.

Ignition is carried out by a MAGNETO FRANCE magneto.
