James were prolific bicycle and motorcycle manufacturers from 1897 to 1966. The company was taken over by Associated Motor Cycles in 1951 and combined with Francis-Barnett in 1957. In 1966 the company became one of the many British motorcycle companies forced out of business by Japanese competition. James produced the 98cc Autocycle, 125cc Comet, Commodore, also 1954/55 Colonel 225cc Villiers single cylinder, several Captains as well as trials and scrambles bikes. 1956 they produced the Captain 200 K7, Cotswold 200 K7C, and Commando 200 K7T, all 197cc
Restored to a good standard by the previous owner, this charming little James motorcycle has formed part of a collection of motorcycles. Showing some signs of use it is understood to still be ‘running well’. We understand that it was converted to 12V, when it was restored. The motorcycle comes complete with a current V5C and many of the old MOT certificates, a duplicate RF60 logbook, handbooks, and a copy of an instruction book.
