info for 1951 18S 500 single

Post by Single »

Hello,

My father and I are at the very beginning stages of a 1951 AJS 18S restoration and we are looking for some reference material. Most of the parts are coming together quickly but there are some pieces that we arent sure about in terms of mounting up to the frame. Does anybody have good pics of the rear of one of these bikes or close up pics of the rear fender and how it mounts up? Most online pics I have found so far are 3/4 shots of the front of the bike and dont provide us with the reference that we are looking for. Any other information that you could provide on this bike would also be appreciated. I am really looking forward to this rebuild and this seems like the place to visit for information.
Thanks in advance,

Jeremy

Join the Yahoo ajsmatchless e-group. That will give you access to 1) The Archive of reference material, and 2) Even more people to talk with on the subject.
