The French Jonghi concern entered the motorcycle market in 1931 with a 348cc side valve single adding a 348cc overhead cam model to the range in 1933 rapidly followed by 248cc and 173cc versions, all of which were successful in competition prior to the Second World War. In the post-war years the company concentrated on the production of lightweights powered by proprietary engines.

This c.1952 Jonghi Model H was purchased from a gentleman who sadly had a very bad stroke and could not complete the work. The current vendor fell in love with it, and the other Jonghi on offer, as restoration projects. Due to work commitments and other family commitments, he has never got around to doing anything with them, so has decided it's time for someone else to take them on. There is no documentation with this lot.
