Manifold for AJS Model 31 Year 59

Post by Ragnar »

During the assembling of my project some difficulties has appeared. The bike was nearly a basket case when I got it, with a lot of parts put on the machine and only a few really belong to it. The inlet manifold that was enclosed to my project, seems to be wrong that it is difficult to fit the carburettor. It is very little space to the rear frame cover, and the air inlet on the carburettor is not in line to the hole in the frame cover. Pictures from the "Roy Bacon" shows that the carburettor is lifted a little upwards at the back, but on my case it is nearly parallel to the cylinders. The casting of the manifold has a number: 025091, but in the Spares List the right number of the manifold is: 025063. Can anyone out there tell me if I have got a wrong part or not?
