OK Supreme could trace their origins to the turn of the twentieth century and until 1926 were known simply as OK. During the year the founding partners split with Ernie Humphries adding the Supreme element to the company name. The company produced high quality machines that usually relied on proprietary power units, typically from JAP, although they did on occasion produce their own engines including the famous overhead cam "Lighthouse" single derived from their 1928 TT winning design. During the late thirties the factory offered a JAP powered 245cc single in a number of forms from a standard utility model to a super sport variant with differences in specification dictated by the specific models intended role, all bearing the name Flying Cloud.
The example offered was built for a relative of the owner prior to 1976. Much admired at the time it was featured in the April 1976 edition of "Motorcycle Sport" and saw limited use before being placed on display in a museum until now. Attractively presented with red paintwork and fitted with alloy rims it appears to be in good condition but following a lengthy period of inactivity its mechanical condition is unknown. It is offered with an old log book, and expired MOT certificates.
