The advanced engine construction used by FN was well a ahead of its time. The four-cylinder engine was chosen because they did not vibrate as much as the one-cylinder. Originally sold by AB A Wiklund's Machine and Velociped Factory, Stockholm. This was used by A Westman in Enebyberg for £ 1,500 and was used for 15 years, until 1929, after which it was well kept in a shed on his plot. It is worn out with original features and accessories that have been added over the years. Only the footbag removed by emergency men during the war, which also injured the horn. Price 1914, 1,500 kronor. Bought by the museum 1956 for 200 kronor.
