THE|jgBEST OF GOODS IN THESE LINES. ("Copy of letter received by Wellington agent for Douglas Motors.] George Street, Wellington, September 9, 1912. Dear Sir, —I am writing you a few lines to tell you now .1 became a rider of a, Douglas lightweight motor-cycle. Some considerable time ago I ordered an 8-h.p. machine with side-car, and owing to delay I decided to buy !a lightweight to pottea- about on until the arrival of. the 8-h.p., and then intended to sell the lightweight. My choice fell on a Douglas, and I bought a 1911 model. I had always believed in a heavy-weight machine, and, not having previously ridden a lightweight, you can imagine the surprise I received at the ease I could start and the power developed by this macliine. I had many thousands of miles pleasure out of this machine, and when my 8-h.p. arrived I simply couldn't part with the Douglas, so ,1 decided to keep the two, using the large machine, for side-car and the small machine for solo riding. When the i 912 Douglas arrived I purchased one, and I find it is an ideal machine, very easy to handle, can be started at a walk, upkeep very light- My back tyre has done over 6000 miles and f" is not worn out yet. The speed obtained by this model is enormous, and I can climb hills that higher power machines find difficult. ,In all my riding on Douglas machines I have never experienced a mechanical stop, which speaks volumes for the material, and magnificent workmanship of the Douglas motors. In conclusion, I may state that never would I purchase a heavy-weight motor for solo riding, and I can honestly recommend the Douglas motor-cycle as the best light-weight on the market.
