The Panther Model 100 600 Single: Sloper Engine Sidecar Riders LOVED
Everyone remembers Triumph, Norton, and BSA—but few remember the Panther Model 100. Yet this remarkable British motorcycle earned a legendary reputation among sidecar riders thanks to its massive long-stroke 600cc single-cylinder "Sloper" engine. Built by Phelon & Moore, the Panther wasn't designed to win races. It was engineered to deliver relentless torque, exceptional reliability, and effortless pulling power when it mattered most. In this documentary, we uncover the complete history of the Panther Model 100, exploring the ingenious engineering behind its forward-inclined Sloper engine, why it became Britain's favorite sidecar motorcycle, and how its unique design philosophy prioritized durability over speed. We'll dive deep into the motorcycle's technical innovations, compare it with rivals like the BSA M21, Matchless G80, Royal Enfield, and Norton Big Four, and reveal why thousands of riders trusted the Panther for touring, work, and everyday transport long after more modern motorcycles had appeared.
