Saroléa was one of the most famous belgian motorcycle manufacturers installed at Herstal near Liège.
Early thirties, the young engineer Nicolas Lempereur developped a small two cylinders engine for aircraft.
Tested on the factory roof during october 1934, it was soon fitted on the first belgian HM-14 Pou du Ciel built especially for Saroléa by Mr Pregaldien. The first test flight happened unexpectedly on 22 august 1935. Soon after, it was also tested on the Tipsy S, the BAC Drone and the Saint-Hubert SBO.
