Thank you very much!!
I dont think i would have found out this by my self.
This seems to be a rather obscure little bike, very little to find online.
I found a just a couple of pictures of the same bike.

Knowing the name of the bike, i have asked our national registration archive for information, and  are awaiting an answer.

Does the framenumber tell anything? Is there any lists of numbers that includes Montgomery's?

I have not found much info about the factory or production-numbers either, i guess it was a rather small factory?

Maybe this could make the missing parts easier to get hold of, since they bought most of them?
Like wheels (British hub co??), gearbox (Albion?), Jap-engine, Dunlop drilastic(?) saddle....

Please let me know if any other parts are recognized as standard parts that could come from other bikes or makers?

I guess the hardest part will be the gastank, or could this also have been bought from another maker?

Anyway, thanks a lot for the info so far. It helped me a lot.

Greetings from Norway. Per.

Hello. I bought this frame at a fleamarket, but have no idea what it is for. (The price was right ;D)
Any tip would be appreciated.

From the internet and books, it seems the fork is used on several other British lightweights from the mid 30's.
It looks like it belongs to the frame, but i am not sure. Does someone maybe know the maker of this?

The frame might possibly fit a Villers unit engine?
I think at least the lower center mounting would fit, but with the front and rear mountigs missing, its hard to say.

The badly assembeled friction damper is marked as a B & D patent (Bentley & Draper, not Black & Decker, as i first thought).

I would guess the modern type central stand could be recognisable to someone?
The seat mounting-post could be a tell?
Also the "skid-plate" under the engine, but this could of course be an aftermarket accessory?

Four-digit frame-number could tell its from a small factory?

The wheel on the pictures is not for this bike.
The battery-shelf also seems a little out of place, but could be at least the correct age. it has had major repairs/modifications done.

Greetings from Norway.

British Bikes / Unknown engine with brass crankcase, English?
« on: March 01, 2015, 09:15:17 AM »
Hello. a friend of mine has this engine.
He would very much like to know what it is from.
to me it looks ike a pre 1910 engine because of the atmospheric inlet valve, but i have not managed to find a match in any of my books.
There are no visible markings on it, but i would guess that someone who knows what this is, would recognize it instantly?
There has been pictures of it on a the German VFV-forum for a while without any answers, so i am guessing that it's not German.

any answers/sugestions are welcome.

Greetings from Norway, Per Bjornstad.

British Bikes / Re: unknown cylinder pre1910?
« on: July 30, 2011, 12:31:44 PM »
there is a smaller hole. i think about 10mm (1/8 R???). as seen on the picture, there is a brass piece stuck in there, so i thinke it has been a primer/compression tap there. the threads seems to be in inches. the hole in the small plate seems to have been for a sparkplug, but it might of course be home made. i dont know if the fixing of the springs give a clue, or if this was the normal way of doing it back then?
the cylinder is found in norway, so it might be from any nation. i have posted pictures on a similar german forum some time ago without getting any answers or sugestions at all. i have also asked some experts in belgium without any luck.

greetings Per.
