Aglebert, Bologna. Once a famous name in the Italian motorcycle industry, the C.M.
was founded by the late Mario Cavedagni, a designer-manufacturer-rider. During the

thirties, 250-, 350- and 500-c.c. singles with own o.h.c. engines were built; after the
war, mostly two-strokes, including a very sporting 250-c.c. vertical-twin, left the
works. Rider-designer Ing. Drusiani was also with C.M."

The company reopened in 1995 in Portland, Oregon, United States manufacturing
replacement parts and eventually new Norton models. The venture eventually
required capital and was bought by Stuart Garner who intends to return production to
the United Kingdom.

http://www.VincentMotors.com. In 1928, Phil Vincent bought HRD and changed the
name to Vincent HRD. In 1949, Vincent HRD was renamed Vincent. Production of
Vincent stopped in 1955. In 1994, Bernard Li acquired the rights to the Vincent
trademark, and in 1996 formed Vincent Motors, USA. Vincent Motors, USA, made 5
prototype motorcycles in 2002. The engine used in these motorcycles has since gone
out of production and Mr. Li has since died. It is therefore not likely that series
production will begin.
