The Nottingham-based Campion concern had made their name as a producer of bicycles prior to their involvement in the motorcycle industry. Active from 1901 until 1926 they offered a range of machines varying in size from lightweight two-strokes to larger four-stroke singles and V-twins, all powered by proprietary engines. Campion bought in powerplants from the likes of Minerva MMC, Fafnir, Precision, Villiers, Blackburne and JAP. They also supplied frames to other companies.

Built in Robin Hood Street, Nottingham and Nottingham registered, 'AL 5761' features a JAP V-twin engine driving through a Sturmey Archer CS gearbox, an arrangement also interestingly favoured by Nottingham based Brough and others, producing prestigious sporting motorcycles during the Vintage era. Purchased by the vendor in restored order, he describes ‘AL’ as a very enjoyable and easy machine to ride, with plenty of power and importantly, a decent rear drum brake! The seller advises that although ‘AL’ is in good order it should be checked over before use. An excellent opportunity to acquire a nicely restored and well specified ‘long legged’ and capable flat tanker, an excellent Banbury Run contender and so much more. The paperwork file includes both V5 and RF60 logbooks, restoration notes and letters etc, a quantity of photocopied period press cuttings, a Campion sales brochure and JAP engine information etc.
