Greyhound were motorcycles produced from 1904 to 1906 by a firm based in Ashford, Middlesex.

Probably Greyhound Motors

The company first listed a forecar called the Greyhound. It had a 3hp Fafnir engine, two-speed gear, chain drive and Bowden brakes. It was designed to offer modest performance at a modest price. A second model had a 3.5hp Antoine engine and a separate three-speed gearbox.

They also produced motorcycles with the same engines or a 2.75hp Bowden. After 1906, the make was no longer listed.

  • Note: It was also called the Greyhound Hampstead.
