Reliability is the primary consideration throughout the design of the No. D7 250 c.c. Super-sports "James." Correct design has produced long-wearing qualities without undue weight. In common with other "James" models, the steering is perfect under all conditions. The engine is up-to-date in every way, with automatic dry sump lubrication and is a sound engineering job. The cylinder head is detachable, and is well equipped with radiating fins. Ball and roller bearings are fitted throughout, including the big end of the connecting rod. Other features are the silent timing gear, large diameter valves, and the generous size tappet and valve guides. This model may be relied upon for long service, with extreme reliability.
