| Black Douglas' profilation of this bike |
| The Sterling Autocycle is the ultimate expression of the spirit with which The Black Douglas builds its motorcycles: the purity of the forms that faithfully reproduce the first flat tank motorcycles. The reliable modern engine and electrical system. The unmatched elegance of a deliberately retro design. The rediscovery of little luxuries that are no longer present among modern production motorcycles. |
