Premier Motorcycles

Premier Motorcycles were British motorcycles manufactured by a business founded as a bicycle manufacturer by W. H. Herbert and William Hillman in 1876.

[1] Their first motorcycle was produced in 1908, with a White & Poppe side-valve engine and Chater-Lea front forks.

They made their first V-twin in 1909, followed by a 499 cc single-cylinder machine in 1910.

[1] After the First World War bicycle or motorcycle production was not resumed and the cyclecar business was acquired by Singer Motors in 1921[2] although Premier motorcycles were produced under licence in Czechoslovakia throughout the 1930s.
