Watsonian-Squire – history in the making














I've just published on www.inter-bike.co.uk a fascinating article on the history of Watsonian-Squire. Fo those of who don't know, they are Britain’s longest surviving motorcycle sidecar manufacturer and also who retail the Royal Enfield range of classic motorcycles in the UK. The article charts the history of this, one of the last great survivors of the British motorcycle industry from 1912 to the current day.
