Publisher's Summary

The Panther M120 was the last in a line of large, single-cylinder motorcycles built by the Phelon and Moore Company in Cleckheaton, Yorkshire. As a teenager, Nick had two Panthers. His first big motorbikes. Although he enjoyed them at the time, he did not treat them well—a source of regret for over 50 years. His affection for those old, single-cylinder sloggers never left, and when the opportunity arose to acquire one later in life, he jumped at it. Would it live up to his memories and fulfil that desire to recapture some of his lost youth? Would it be suited to exploring the back roads of Canada? 

Would it ever be reliable enough to trust far from home? There’s only one way to find out.

This is the story of one man's affection for these robust and charismatic motorcycles.
