Description
Step back in time with this extraordinary 1920 Matchless Model H, an authentic piece of motorcycle history. Fully original, unrestored, and still in running condition – it’s the kind of machine that speaks volumes without saying a word. The robust 976cc JAP V-twin side-valve engine, paired with Matchless’ own 3-speed gearbox, makes it one of the most capable sidecar combinations of its era.
Built specifically as a sidecar outfit, the Model H features a sprung sidecar wheel, swingarm rear suspension, and electric lighting – an advanced setup for its time. Additional period features include fully enclosed chains, interchangeable wheels, pressed steel running boards, leg shields, and a folding luggage rack with a spare wheel. A true collector’s item for the passionate enthusiast or museum
At VintageMotorcycles. nl, we believe in full transparency, every bike is sold in the condition it’s in at the time of sale.
Some still wear their original tyres or brake lines, while others have already been updated. If you’d like additional work such as a service inspection, new tyres, or replacement brake lines, that’s always possible at an extra cost. This way, you decide how original — or how ready — your next classic should be.
