Beschreibung
AJS 18S from 1955 with a 500cc engine was purchased in 2011 by the current owner. The seller was Fredrik Isaksson in Mariefred, who had in turn bought it in 1996 from Bengt Grönborg in Upplands Väsby. The motorcycle was first registered in 1957.
The AJS is in good usable condition and has been used for both shorter and longer rides without any issues.
In addition to regular maintenance, new parts from BAS Motor have been fitted, including the saddle, carburetor, fuel taps, and the magneto coil. The magneto is a Lucas SR model, which is a very reliable design since the magnet rotates rather than the coil.

Fakten zum Modell
The AJS Model 18 was manufactured from 1945 to 1966. The Matchless G80 is essentially the same motorcycle, produced by the same group, AMC. In 1949, the AJS 18 was fitted with rear suspension and was then designated the 18S (“Spring”), which was a tremendous improvement over the earlier AJS 18. The Model 18 features a low-compression engine adapted to the poor-quality fuel of the post-war period, making it relatively easy to start. It is also said to have offered better performance than most cars of its time.
The company Matchless began manufacturing motorcycles in 1901, having previously produced bicycles like many others. AJS was acquired by Matchless in 1931. Associated Motor Cycles (AMC) was formed in 1938 as the parent company for Matchless and AJS, and later also acquired brands such as Norton.

Auktionsinfo
General information about the condition of the vehicles .
- At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
- During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
