Brief History of the Marque: PresterCompany's address;EICHEL Frères 50 av. Marceau COURBEVOIE, FranceMade in France from 1926 into the late 1950s, earlier machines were made with Aubiere & Dunne, Vog, Train and Chaise engines. In 1936 they merged with Jonghi and began producing a range of racing machines with double overhead cam engines of 175 to 348cc designed by Remondini. Following WWII production resumed with 98cc to 250cc twostroke engines and ohv fourstrokes fitted to motorcycles and a scooter.The history of the company begins in Italy with the firm Naga & Ray which built 350cc SV engines. In 1932 Argentinian industrialist Tito Jonghi purchased the company, relocated to France and renamed the product to Jonghi.The following year, in 1933, the company went bankrupt and merged with Prester, owned by the Eichel brothers who were deported by the Nazis in 1940. The Prester company was absorbed from there by S.A.T.A.M. This bike has absolutely gone through a time-warp and looks for sure similar as it did MANY decades ago where it remained to look as old as old can be.. As it is loaded with many nice and original details (see pic’s), it is Really a pleasure to look at, where the old paint is showing after 80 years nice traces of use age (patina). The bike has still its original French made ″Aubier et Dunne″ engine fitted, which unit looks to be completely unmolested and hardly ever touched. Both tires are old but are in good shape, have good profile and are holding air perfectly. This motorcycle comes with an official European Certificate of Origin which document will be issued in your name and states the make, model, year of manufacture, displacement, weight etc, plus an official bill of sale from my company here in Belgium. Furthermore I’ll make sure that all the correct export-paperwork will be in place before the bike leaves from here, which documents will make the process of importing it into the US an easy ride. -On this listing I’m offering a special (fully sealed) motorcycle crate, careful packing and physical shipping from here in Belgium to a US CFS as close as possible to you at my expense, meaning that I will pay for having the bike crated and all handling etc. plus the ocean-freight charge, where you are responsible for all charges at your (US) end, like entry fees, port, handling and eventually broker fees etc.If you want any additional information about this, please ask before you place a bid.
