AJSMOC Guestbook July/August/September 2003 Archive

This page contains the July/August/September 2003 postings for our guestbook.

I have just purchased a 1958 AJS 31 . This will be my first restoration project. The bike is in fair shape but has not been painted in the correct colours and has a few minor parts missing. I feel confident that I will be able to souce the required parts with the contacts from the members of this fabulous site. I have mailed in the AJSMOC membership application today. Cheers, Victor

I just bought my first Matchless, a 1949 G3L 350 military model. I have been riding for 38 years, from Hondas to Harleys to Triumphs, and I am trying to learn more about classic bikes, so thanks for the site.

What a pity there's nothing like your club in my country. G50's and CSR or A7R are such beautifull motorbikes. One day I'll have one, yeah!
