Joseph Bourne and Sons of Bath Street, Birmingham.

  • Elmdon were motorcycles produced by the company from 1915 to 1921
  • The machine had a 269cc Villiers two-stroke engine and the option of single- or two-speed transmission. Both had belt final-drive, Druid forks and a Senspray carburettor. The specification was simple and the motorcycles were produced in small numbers for a few years. In their latter years, they also produced a 6hp model.
