OUT OF STOCK René Gillet is said to have built his very first motorcycle as early as 1895; this claimed seniority as a motorcycle manufacturer would have allowed him to adopt the slogan "doyenne des marques de motocyclettes françaises" — myth or reality? Other single-cylinder models would follow, but it was around 1905, with his first 45° V-twins, that he...
