Don reviews a beautifully restored 1925 James motorcycle, affectionately known as 'A Jimmy'. Although in later years James motorcycles were known for producing 2 stroke bikes, in the 1920's they produced 4 stroke machines from 250cc to 750cc. This 500cc bike was thought of as the ace in the pack and each bike was tested to 65mph.
Don feels that James was a very honest manufacturer, producing most of the components that went into the bikes themselves.
It has a 3 speed hand change gearbox and 2 levers to control the petrol and air intake. Balancing the 2 levers is part of the skill and pleasure in riding these old machines.
In Don's words 'the Jimmy is a real cracker'.
