Old Prester motorcycle
Prester
Hello, I have an old Prester motorcycle. I bought it from the estate
of a gentleman here in Santa Barbara. It is completely original and with
a little effort runs me around the block a time or two. I have a lot of
questions regarding the bike and would welcome any and all assistance.
One more thing, the last time it was registered it was in China so it still
carries Diplomatic plates as the owners father was the American Ambassador
at the time. Pretty cool. I'll send off some photos soon if you wish.

The bike appears to be a Prester B1 of about
1936 vintage. Ed.

My Father is in the process of putting together a Prester, which he
recently brought back from France. As yet I have not been able to find
him any information on the web but if you know what a good starting point
may be, it would be really useful :-)
If I find anything in the meantime, I'll drop you a line....
Kindest regards.
