M 1909 Winchester

[Major 2]

M for Motorcycle  

This Winchester motorcycle was built by the Edwin F. Merry Company in San Francisco, California, for the Winchester Repeating Arms Company.  Winchester commissioned the Merry Company to build 200 motorcycles from 1909 – 1911 under the Winchester patent rights. This one was built in 1910, and it is almost completely original. Forty years of research have confirmed that it is the only one of the original 200 Winchester motorcycles still in existence.”

The Winchester Model 1910 motorcycle is powered by a single cylinder, six horsepower engine. It shares many of the features of those produced by other manufacturers during the same time period, such as Harley Davidson and Indian.

That's very interesting. I never knew Winchester was in the motorcycle business. Attached is a picture of Harley-Davidson serial number 1. It resembles the Winchester Bike. This was taken at the HD museum in Milwaukee.
