Before WW2 Motorcycling was, as it is today a major coed activity. Riding was not just a past-time but an economical mode of transportation and in most cases a necessary one due to the cost of cars before The Great Depression. I learned today that many of those pre-WW2 motorcycle companies made ladies specific models.
Radco is the company featured in the latest issue of The Classic MotorCycle with a 247cc ladies model, designed with a drop down frame for "lady-like" riding. What is even more interesting is most of these ladies models were manufactured pre-WW1! It's amazing how things come around again...maybe I'll come up with a new ladies design?
