KUL was used May to Sept 1949, so I guess it will be a 1949 bike. I assume its an AJS or Matchless but you don't say.

Its an AJS> I overlooked that. Cannot assume its a comp bike thought, so pic or machine numbers still needed.
Its a Central London number, so you could try them for info VRO 1 Zoar Street, London, SE1 0SY

Thanks to all for the replies, yes it is an AJS 350 or 500 I would think. My Dad lived in Erith, kent. He rode for Erith Mcc. Don't think it would be a competition bike, looks like standard road bike.

I will see him the weekend and get some more information.

I will try and post Photos asap

Or just join, you will get your monies worth just in information and help, not to mention a good mag every month, money off spares (for an extra one off £10 fee!) and you can post as many pics as you like. As a guest you have a limited posting allocation and use of the forum. A digital membership (digital mag only) is only £22 a year..
