A rare pre-war French motorcycle, now approaching its centenary
Fitted with a Terrot 350cc sidevalve engine and 3-speed Terrot gearbox
Supplied with German registration papers
The Appeal
Terrot was one of France's most prolific motorcycle manufacturers during the early twentieth century, building machines at their Dijon factory that earned a strong reputation for dependability across Europe. The HT boasted a 350cc sidevalve engine, which proved rugged and enduring - helping to eke out its place in an increasingly busy market.
This 1928 example is now approaching its centenary and presents an increasingly scarce opportunity to acquire a piece of early French motorcycling history. Pre-war Terrots seldom appear on the open market, and this HT is a particularly handsome, nicely patina'd beauty. Not to be missed.
