message: what do you know about Advance motorcycles?
According to Tragatsch, an English make produced from 1906 to 1912
using their own single cylinder and V-twin engines. The machines were distinguished
in having very low-slung frames compared to their contemporaries. Henshaw
says the same. Ed.

site about the Oakington Monoplane, powered by an Advance V4 engine,
has some interesting information on the Northampton based marque. Apparently
the company still exists as part of the Unipart Group.
