DESCRIPTION

  • Levis built motorcycles in Birmingham between 1911 and 1940 at their Buterfield factory. Early examples were powered by 211cc two-stoke engines, later replaced with four-stroke units in 1928 until the company folded in 1941

  • Correct numbers and complete with Sunbeam Motor Cycle Club Pioneer Certificate dated 2006
  • Unused for a while but was started recently, so will require some basic recommissioning before road use
  • Complete with a large history file containing numerous receipts, correspondence and Pioneer Certificate. UK-registered on a current V5C
  • Great example of this early Levis
