- In this video we take an in depth look into SAMMY MILLER'S VERY RARE FRUIN 200 motorcycle from the Sammy Miller Motorcycle Museum collection of motorcycles.
This two stroke four cylinder 200cc Fruin motorcycle was engineered by Bert Fruin in the 1960s.
This time it's John Ring who's doing most of the talking. John has been building engines for Sammy for over 20 years now, so he knows a thing or two about classic motorcycles.

My very first form of transport was an NSU QUICKLY two-speed moped, and Bert Fruin’s shop was our local bicycle shop, and when it was sold it later became ABBEY GARAGE where I purchased my BONNEVILLE T140D in 1979😇
The most underrated motorcycle museum in the UK, they need a social media marketing manager
So true, there’s so much to look at in there!
I think I'm envious of this mans job!
Was looking at it in the museum last week. Nice to hear it run.
Fantastic place to visit.
What a fantastic noise!
Bill Fruin had a motorycle shop in Benson, Oxfordshire. Bert was his brother. There is another Fruin bike at the Murray museum, IoM.
Nice one Phil, thanks for sharing that!
Outstanding ! First to use Nikasil and here I thought the Yamaha TZ 750 was the first 4 cylinder 2 stroke.
Jameson built twin supercharged four cylinder two-stroke engines in the 1930s. With one liter displacement and over 100hp! for automobile racing.
Good to see and hear that you're still working on those engines, John. Pulling those Bantams apart in mum's back garden all those years ago was a good training ground - if a bit muddy. 😂
A passion that keeps you young. Peter S
Excellent!
Glad you liked it Nigel :)
Friendly sound
I saw that bike at a CRMC race meeting I went to at Snetterton with Mark Wellings, a Moto Guzzi racer, back in the '80s. And seeing the comment below about them being in Benson, coincidentally I was stationed at RAF Benson a little later on.
Geeze, that wonderful machine is a screaming demon! Where's the red-line on that beauty?
as a kid I had a Raleigh runabout and someone I knew had a NSU quickly, I never knew about the barrel lining being the first nikasil coated sleeve, the NSU could bump backwards and run backwards, I wonder how many engines companies like NSU, Raleigh, Villiers made and where are they all now, smelted. every wash house, coal shed had one in under an old carpet or tarpalin,
Beautiful bike!
It sure is!
I've always liked the weird Alice stuff. Like Alan Milyard.
Met a Dutch couple touring the UK on NSU Quicklies in the 70s they had done thousands of trouble free miles all over Europe .
Mind you riding with your feet constantly for hours on bike pedals must be uncomfortable
I would have an infrared temp gun at the ready as soon as it fired up, pointing at the header pipes to see if it was firing on all four because it certainly didn't sound like it at first
They dont make them like that anymore. That goes for the bikes too.
