Cathro
The brothers Richard S. and Hurtle A. Cathro of Hindmarsh are known to have built two motorcycles. The first (c.1918) was fitted with an early Chater-Lea brake drum, possibly sourced from Lewis.
They began construction of a second machine using a V-Twin JAP engine fitted to a later BSA frame. This was not completed owing to the passing of Hurtle in 1934, according to Terry Parker who briefly owned the motorcycle.

Comet-Minerva (Vic.)
Cottman Colt
Manufactured by Cottman and Co, Melbourne in the 1930s using Royal Enfield 225cc two-strokes. Images from restoration of a Cottman show very similar frame and front and rear guards to the 1932 Royal Enfield Model A (with single downtube), so they may have been rebadged machines. Forks are pressed metal, as fitted to later models of the 225cc Enfields.
Around 1940 Cottman and Co moved into the former Turner premises at 291-293 Elizabeth St, Melbourne.
