History of SILK

SILK was formed in the UK in 1970 to manufacture motorcycle components.

SILK took this the next step by developing and manufacturing the ‘Silk 700S’ sports motorcycle which was well known as a having a simple and reliable engine that was well balanced, maneuverable and punched well above it’s weight amongst it’s peers.

The clever use of gearing and attention to detail meant that the ‘SILK 700S’ was so good it was forced to compete against bikes above it’s class in order to find competition.
