Brown motorcycles were made in England from 1902 to 1919 using
both their own and, in later years,
JAP engines.
After 1919 they were known as
Vindec motorcycles,
unrelated to the German Allright Vindec-Special.

Hello,
You requested info on "Brown" Motorcycles. I dont have a lot
but roughly, they were in production from1902 to 1919 after which
they started to use the "Vindec" name. Originally, they made their own
engines but late fitted JAP models. I have heard that they supplied engines
to "Corydon" There is also some suggestion that their engines
were used for industrial purposes. I attach a pix of a 1907 500cc
model. Too modern for me. Thats about all I have at present.
My interest is: I recently aquired a Circa 1904, 500cc engine and have
set myself the impossible task of finding or making a frame. Anything
you can come up with would be appreciated.
