Title: Re: side car Post by: cunningplan on April 22, 2009, 06:56:50 AM as I could not remember what the bike was, I asked and this is the reply
"Dear Mr Smith Thank you for your enquiry and the photo. The bike was registered with Kerry County Council around 1908. Pat Davy our assistant librarian identified it as a 3 1/2 hp Rex by its distinctive front forks, together with the fact that the square fronted tank was introduced in 1907 and the "Chess Man" control was fitted on the left hand stole at the front of the tank in 1908. The make of sidecar is uncertain but Rex were offering outfits using Montgomery sidecars at this time. Regards Jeff Nutt VMCC Library" |
