SUNBEAM MODEL 14 Models/Series Timeline, Specifications & Photos

Sunbeams are timeless old motorcycles and the Model 14 is a great example from the marque. Produced between 1933 and 1938 the 250cc tourer was a solid cross country motorcycle and many of them saw unofficial service during WWII throughout Britain.

To reduce costs, Burman gearboxes were fitted to many models, the revamped ‘14’ included, but Sunbeam had built its reputation on superlative quality of construction and finish and was unable to drop its standards sufficiently to match its rivals for price.
