Fagan Motorcycles Ireland

Fagan Motorcycles Ireland The Fagan motorcycle , built in Dublin in 1936 by John Fagan of Clonsilla

Bike builder, entrepreneur, tax avoider(legend)

We dont know if John envisaged market domination or simply wanted a motorcycle to get around on, and the less he paid for it the better! We all know the pain of importing a bike from the eu/uk/usa in these days of vrt/vat/nox charges and we would all love to find away to avoid them to get the best wheels we can at the best price, it was the same in

the 1930s when

de Valera imposed levies on British imports in response to Uk sanctions imposed on Irish exports, to avoid these levies The Fagan motorcycle came into being, imported as parts and assembled in Ireland taking advantage of a loophole. There are various accounts of how many were built but we think there was very possibly only 1, most of the parts have been identified by a very knowledgeable man and contributor to this page, and yes we think its possible to build a Fagan again.
