AJS Stormers yes, but what about the others??
Some new members have just discovered James became part of AMC, and the James machines were re badged Matchless for the American market.
But what about the other Gen. AJS & Matchless 2 stroke engined machines ?? I have lost my sales cat of these bikes sold in Sweden. I am sure they have been featured in Jampot in the past.

Well I'm blowed, theres me thinking the model 12 AJS ended cicra 1939 ( not checked if it was in the 1940 cat. ) K12 because K is the year code letter for 1928 when a 250sv was introduced, refered to as a K12 ( became M12 in 1929 and so on, also changed from SV to OHV 250 not checked when.
