Bridgestone BS-31

Motorcycles and Powered Two- and Three-Wheelers

The Bridgestone BS-31 was a motorized bicycle of about 38 cc built by Bridgestone after its first complete powered cycle, the BS-21 Bambi of 1952. The Bridgestone Registry history says the 26 cc Bambi was stretched to become the BS-31, given as 38.5 cc, and the BS-41 of 49 cc, all using standard Bridgestone bicycles of various types, and that these machines sold well and helped establish the Bridgestone reputation. Wikipedia likewise lists a 38 cc BS-31 and a 49 cc BS-41 as later additions to the Bambi. The pages read do not give the year it appeared or its engine layout, so those facts are left open here.
