Lot 114
AJS - Matchless 249cc Project
Registration no. not registered
Frame no. 18990
Engine no. 62CSR/ 12595
Associated Motor Cycles returned to the 250cc class in 1958 with a brace of all-new models. Shared by the AJS Model 14 and Matchless G2, the four-stroke, overhead-valve power unit incorporated its oil tank within the crankcase and appeared to be of unit construction, although a separate gearbox was retained. Super sports 'CSR' roadsters arrived in 1962, by which time there was already a 'CS' scrambler in the range. Despite wearing an AJS tank it has not been possible to positively identify the manufacture of this machine's frame, which is fitted with a 1962 Matchless G2 CSR engine. Accordingly, prospective bidders must satisfy themselves as to the composition, age, manufacture and compatibility of the component parts prior to bidding. Offered strictly as seen, the odometer displays 5, 369 miles (not warranted). Offered without documents.
£300-500
To be sold without reserve
All lots are sold 'as is/ where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
