I know our little gearboxes are fragile and I know our frames are a little "bendy" and I know the term Lightweight doesn't quite describe us but why oh why are we so unloved even by our bigger brothers and their twins? I am looking for spares in UK for my little Matchey, anyone able to help? Ride Safe one and all.

Nice to vist with you and see the continued interest in AJS and Matchless bikes worldwide. I bought a 350cc AJS new in 1946. Black with Gold tank trim. Non sprung frame. Licence FVA435. This was in another life I had in Scotland. Had to sell in 1951 when I returned to the USA but that AJS still has a soft spot in my heart to this day.

If any one out there can email me any morr info as to the age of the bike and a source for having the wheels re-spoked(laced) I'd appreciate it. thanks KEN
