Hi all, I have a '66 G80 that I recently got off my father who bought it new. After putting only 20 miles or so on her last year, she developed a knock in the lower end. So, now its time for a rebuild. Does anybody know where I can get parts for her?( this the iron barrel tour model ). Thanks in advance. I will also be sending my application in to the AJSMOC today.

Quite some time ago I made an even trade of a whipped "78" Tri Bonnie for a non-original but nice "61" Matchless G-12. I miss the thumper but the G-12 is a real sweet cruiser. I am looking forward to getting it back in shape. Hope someone out there can help. I'm having quite a run around just trying to locate cables. Alas, the trouble of the unique!

My first big bike was a '55 G9. Loved it. sold it in '95 and repented it. Now own a '56 G3. Looking for a G9 but very scarce in India. Lots of G3s however here.

En 1991 compre esta Matchless que estaba sin funcionar desde 1964, pero al haber estado mal guardada, su estado no es exelente.Cuando la compre, limpie carburador y platinos del magneto cargue combustible y en el segundo intento arranco. Tengo algunos faltantes practicamente imposibles de conseguir en Argentina . Estoy muy contento con ella y ansioso por intercambiar comentarios,saludos
