  • This is a charming little Douglas and restored well

First seen at the 1928 Motor Cycle Show at Olympia, the new EW featured wet-sump lubrication, flat-topped pistons, heavier valve gear, finned valve caps and primary chain adjustment be means of fore-and-aft engine movement. Sporting the fashionable ‘saddle’ tank that would soon become almost universal, the much-revised EW was re-designated ‘B29’ while the original version continued as the ‘A29’. The engine sat on a large cast aluminium oil sump, with no oil sight glass. The L29 was the war department model.

This is a charming little Douglas that appears to have been restored to a good standard. Used and enjoyed since completion a few years ago, the restoration is holding up and presents well. A correct numbers machine and ideal for VMCC events. It comes with a current V5C and will require some light recommissioning before use.
