Matchless G15

Post by Shent »

Hi all
My name is Roy I am a new member, I have recently acquired an imported machine with no doc,s which I believe is a 1966 G15 Mk2 the engine No is G15M2/119980 frame No is 119980 gearbox No is MA14913G. It appears to have Norton wheels with a twin leading front brake and I think the forks could be roadholder. This is my first venture with an old brit bike can anyone help to confirm if it sounds right.

Thanks for your reply does 1966 sound right for the year and does anyone know which forks were fitted as I believe there were different length roadholder.
