Campion was a firm that started life as a cycle making business. Campion Cycle Co Ltd were located at Robin Hood Street, Nottingham, and used a wide variety of proprietary engines in its motorcycle production, which ranged from 147cc two stroke lightweights to mighty 996cc v-twins and sidecar outfits.
This Campion was purchased by the current owner in 2012 to form part of his collection of early machines. Used for a short time in his ownership on many VMCC events. The Campion comes complete with a current V5c, duplicate RF60 from the 1960s many Bruce Main Smith Catalouges, and some old photographs from the 1980s. It appears to have had an engine change sometime in its life and the original was placed back in it, please note that the V5c still states the old engine number.
