Hello all, quite some time back I came on here to ask about the Wardill motorcycle, built by my great grandfather during the 1920's I have since found out white a bit about the bike and have started to build a tribute using original parts.  I have also been quite side-tracked and decided to continue what my great grandfather started 91 years ago and re-launch the Wardill brand. we have built the Wardill4 it is based on the original motorcycle built by my great grandfather, but with all new parts.

Here is the bike in question its a prototype at the moment, but will be going into production in the new year, it will be hand made in the Uk (Wales). I hope you like it

you can find out more information on out website www.wardillmotorcycles.com

Hello All

A while back I asked some questions regarding the Wardill Motorcycle, and mentioned that I would like to build a replica, well I am pleased to announce that I have started the build of a replica,

I am currently on a large fact finding mission, tracking down the make of many of the parts, I have made quite good progress,

Here are the reference photos I have for the build.



My plan is to build as much of the frame as i can, to get a rolling chassis, while working on the engine too.

for those who haven't seen my original posts, the Wardill Motorcycle , used a bespoke Wardill Engine with an internal annular non firing piston that worked as an internal supercharger. this can bee seen in the following photograph.



I have also managed to buy the correct 21" beaded edge wheel.


I have also purchased the correct Brampton Forks, this has now allowed me to check the dimensions of my 1:1 print, so that I can start measuring the frame, I will be ordering some tube soon to start the build!

I know it's a long shot, but I'm after a 1920's Hemming  frame like this one.



Thanks in advance.

Mark
