To decide between 1911 and 1912 it would be easiest to know whether the top frame tube is straight or dropped to give a lower seat position. Move those skirts, Ma’m! ‘Tis said that all 1912 models were delivered with a clutch in the back hub (?), which ours doesn’t appear to have. So let’s go with 1911 Model 7A – magneto ignition, flat belt drive with tensioning device. If 1912, it would be a Model 8A.
