  • The home made 700 cc Matchless V-twin, mainly made out of 350cc heavy weight parts, is finaly ready to run. Here you can see how easy it is to start with only one kick.

    nice job. It reminds me of Alan Millyards Velocette'V-twin. In Kent I saw someone riding a what he named '''Harmless Norton'': Harley carter with 2 Matchless cilinders in a Norton Featherbedframe.

    I've seen many conversions even a Hillman Imp engine cut down to thee cylinders and squeezed in to a Norton frame that was good, however this V twin 700cc made from the 350 AJS is wonderful idea. I had an AJS 16ms when I was seventeen and still have a soft spot for an AJAY.. Thanks for posting and more importatantly for all the effort in the building.. Would love to see it on the road.

    Superbly executed. Pretty heavy, I'd think,

    Hallo Henk,
    Heb het filmpje ook maar eens met geluid beluistert...klinkt goed !
    Alleen zul je nu je kledingstijl ook moeten aanpassen !
    Dus vooruit waar blijft die oude leren jas en bijpassende helm

      It’s standard procedure on lots of old bikes.
