A New Lightweight fitted with a J.A.P. 2 ¾ h.p. Engine and Countershaft Gear.
ALTHOUGH there is nothing strikingly new in the 1919 Wolf-Jap lightweight, it will interest our readers to know that the old-established Wolverhampton firm has decided to make such a model. The machine is fitted with the new J.A.P. lightweight engine, the 1919 improvements of which are described in some detail in the preceding article.
A two-speed countershaft gear, with clutch and kick starter, is fitted as standard, the gear being controlled by means of a gate change fitted underneath the tank, and the clutch by Bowden lever on the handle-bar.
The specification includes Lion variable magneto, Amac or Senspray carburetter, Druid forks, Lvcett's pan-seat saddle, two toolbags with tool roll and full kit of tools, large aluminium foot-boards, Best and Lloyd drip feed pump, and 26x2 ¼in. tyres. The price 56 guineas.
A 4 h.p. four-stroke and three Villiers- engined two-stroke models will also be marketed. The prices of the latter are £40 for single gear, £48 with two-speed, and £50 with two-speed, kick starter, and clutch. The 4 h.p. J.A.P. - engined medium-weight with Sturmey-Archer countershaft gear is listed at £84.
