Yes the spelling is correct, HUIN ELIE with a 175cc AMC engine, made
in 1951 in a place called Clement Ferrond in France.
I am now the new owner of this bike, and its a booty.
All intact exept for the stand.
On the cart grise (log book) its Make Huin Elie type AH the 16th made in 1951
I will take it to the local garage for a couple new tyres-innertubes and ht lead. Then we will if it still works??.
I will let you know any facts we find out about the bike in the future.
Bonne chance John

More info on the Huin, I put in Huin Elie Motorcycle into google, then went to www.lva-moto.fr/forum/topic-3275-la-marque-elie-huin-page-1.html Lva moto-forum/la marque elie huin.
The bike I have is the ¨¨grand tourisme¨¨ model.
I am looking for things like handbook, what the missing stand looks like,why is there a foot change and hand change for the gears??
There are more questions than answers at the moment?.
Bonne chance John
