Cheney Racing
Cheney Racing is a well-known British motorcycle brand for off-road motorcycle racing. They're famous for making perfect, custom frames for motorcycles. These frames became popular with pro racers and regular riders because they were super strong and gave riders an edge in racing.
During the 1960s and 1970s, many motocross and off-road racers used Cheney frames. The riders on these bikes won a bunch of big races both in the UK and around the world. This made Cheney a top name in the motorcycle world.
Cheney Racing worked with big motorcycle makers like BSA and Triumph to make special motocross racing bikes. These partnerships led to factory-supported racing bikes, like the famous Cheney BSA. These bikes had a unique frame with a front suspension ahead of time, making the bike handle well.
Old Cheney Racing frames and motorcycles are gold to motorcycle fans and collectors today. Finding a restored motorcycle with a Cheney frame is a big deal in the collector's world. It shows how good Cheney Racing was at making frames and how important they were in the history of off-road racing.
