Starting a Panther M100 600cc Classic Motorcycle

Today I took my 1951 M100 Panther 600cc out of the shed and started it in real time with no editing after being laid up for about 3 months. It went well apart from a bit of clutch slippage which did not give me an efficient kick to turn the motor over properly. However it started quite well. I have owned the bike since I was 19. So 50 years!

This is a real Lovely Machine, had a British friend who had one in his living room, ready to go

Now THAT is what you call a motorcycle, she may be old and a bit finicky but she will still be here when we are all dead and buried .
May she give you many years of service .....take care of her 👍.
Peace out ✌

Thanks, I have had it for 50 years and not thinking of getting rid of it any time soon. It is part of the family!

Great clip. My dad had a Panther exactly like yours.
