Ivy was a motorcycle manufacturer between 1907 and 1934 in Birmingham, England. It was run by various brothers from the Newman family. Ivy built about 6,000 motorcycles of various models. Most used two-stroke engines made by either J.A.P. or Precision, but there were also 225cc and 296cc engines designed and manufactured by Ivy. The company also made its own suspension forks, carburettors and sidecars. The company was heavily involved in motorcycle racing, with several of the Newman brothers entering races themselves and especially successful, winning many local events and finishing well in the Isle of Man TT races several times.
This very charming 1922 Ivy Three De Lux has been currently owned for the last 57 years; a true survivor of the mark and in mostly original condition for its age. The current vendor had the engine completely rebuilt at great expense by Robin James Restorations. All available correspondence, pictures, and bills are available and on file. The little Ivy started with ease at the time of my visit and settled to a smooth idle. A wonderful machine that has always drawn in the cross at many events it has participated in. It is offered at the sale complete with a current V5C and the original RF60 logbook.
