This four cylinder [[motorcycle]] was truly an unorthodox design from front to back. From the use of a car-type, [[air-cooled]] OHV engine, [[shaft drive]], reverse gear in the transmission and “training wheels,” nothing about the '''Militaire''' was conventional. Production ran from 1911 to 1917 with less than 100 machines produced. Over the six year production run, eight companies were involved in its manufacture.
