1951 Matchless 500cc

[Joe Moe]

Hello, I just picked up a 1951 Matchless and I don't have a clue. It looks like the engine is all there, the generator is not mounted but complete. I'm looking for a repair book. Can any one point me in the right direction? Thanks, Joe

I'd join the AJS/Matchless owners club. They seem to have lots of info.

Those generators are quite rare. Many the AJS and Matchless rolling around with an empty socket where the dynamo once was.
