The Ner-A-Car was a type of feet forwards motorcycle designed by Carl Neracher in 1918. It used an unusual steel-channel chassis, much like an automobile, and hub-center steering at the front wheel, making it 'nearly a car' in design. The Ner-A-Car was the most successful hub-center steering motorcycle ever produced, with sales far eclipsing earlier or later examples of this design, such as the Yamaha GTS1000 or Bimota Tesi. About 10,000 Neracars were manufactured in the United States by the Ner-A-Car Corporation (under the Neracar name), while around 6,500 are believed to have been produced in England under licence by the Sheffield-Simplex company between 1921 and 1926 under the Ner-A-Car name.

  • La Ner-A-Car fou una motocicleta del tipus "peus avançats" que dissenyà el nord-americà Carl Neracher el 1918. Tenia un xassís inusual de canal d'acer, molt semblant al d'un automòbil, i transmissió a la roda anterior, cosa que la convertia en "gairebé un cotxe" (en anglès, nearly a car). La Ner-A-Car va ser la motocicleta de direcció de boixa central més reeixida mai produïda (les seves vendes van eclipsar amb escreix exemples anteriors o posteriors d'aquest tipus de disseny, com ara la Yamaha GTS1000 o la Tesi). La Ner-A-Car Corporation en va fabricar vora 10.000 unitats als Estats Units amb el nom de "Neracar", mentre se suposa que a Anglaterra, entre el 1921 i el 1926, la companyia n'hi va produir al voltant de 6.500 sota llicència amb el nom de "Ner-A-Car".

  • Das Ner-a-Car war ein US-amerikanisches Motorrad des Herstellers „Neracar Corporation of Syracuse“, das von 1921 bis 1926 zum Kauf angeboten wurde. Es war das erste Motorrad mit einer Radnabenlenkung als Vorderradführung. Der Name Ner-a-Car leitet sich von dessen Konstrukteur Carl A. Neracher ab, der sich vorgenommen hatte, ein „Beinahe-Auto“ zu bauen. (de)

  • Ner-A-Car, ook bekend als Neracar is een historisch merk van motorfietsen. Fabrikant: The Neracar Corporation, Syracuse, New York, later Sheffield Simplex Ltd., Sheffield en Kingston-on-Thames (1921-1924). De Neracar was van oorsprong een Amerikaans merk. Al in 1917 construeerde Carl A. Neracher machines die wat van een tweewielige auto weg hadden. Bij de benaming van de machine maakte Neracher een woordspeling op zijn eigen naam door het merk Ner-A-Car te noemen. Het Engelse "near a car" kan ongeveer worden vertaald door "lijkend op een auto". De productie begon in 1921. (nl)
