Panther Since 1950

Product Description

Panther Since 1950 by Steve Wilson

Panther were one of those legendary British makes of motorcycle who produced limited numbers of surprisingly good machines. The book starts with a short but comprehensive history of the company from its inception in the early 1900s. It describes the business challenges and successes experienced by P&M. The small Yorkshire company grew to being a well-known manufacturer of high speed touring machines and small counter bikes in the pre-war years, to a company that has now become best known for its sidecar machines, although post-war Panthers also make excellent solo motorcycles. The book describes in detail all the post-1950 models from the less well known and increasingly sought after lightweights, to the more familiar single cylinder heavyweights. Full information is given on specifications through the years, engine and frame numbers, and colour schemes.
