Found this pic. Any ideas?




Looks like a USA engine ( US flag on newspaper ).

Got nowhere looking for Strand Motor. Not useful anyway ..

So how does it work?

Face cams, like the Capriolo ?? OHC drive ??

Other suggestions..

It's a cool old bike.

Thanks, Eric ... what service ...  :thumbup:

Impressive engine .. 45 BHP/ litre in 1915 .. most UK cars didn't get there until 1980 ..  :scratch:

Never heard of Cyclone ... looks the part for a tracker though, damn great engine, and just enough metalwork to prevent gravel-rash on the riders a4se ..

That would be an interesting engine to make in say, 1/2 or 1/4 scale...
