Austel Motorcycles

Austel Motorcycles were produced by Austel Engineering of Maidenhead, Berkshire, England between 1985 and 1991. It was the idea of engineer/designer Chris Castell to use a engine in a motorcycle to produce a long-lasting, economic to ride and service motorcycle. The Austel name was derived from the first letters of the Austin (Mini engine) and the last letters of Castell with the second l dropped. There is an Austel 1000 cc Lotec motorcycle on display at the London Motorcycle Museum.
