John Morris

From Graces Guide

Morris motorcycles were produced from 1913 to 1922, by John Morris of Knowle, Worcestershire.

John Morris manufactured a 247cc two-stroke engine with CAV magneto, Amac carburettor and Best and Lloyd lubrication. It was fitted into conventional lightweight cycle parts with a choice of single speed, two-speed or three-speed chain-cum-belt drive. The engine was offered to other small assemblers, and although Triple H of Coventry adopted it, few responded with orders.
