Description

  • Associated Motorcycles (AMC) launched the AJS Model 14 and Matchless G2 in 1958 as new additions to their lightweight 250 range
  • The 'sporty' CSR incorporated the 'Teledraulic' forks from its larger siblings and a full-width 'British Hub' front brake
  • For 1965, the CSR featured a high compression piston (9.5 to 1), closer gear ratios, a raised exhaust and coil valve springs
  • Often regarded as pedestrian in period, the 14 CSR had a fair turn of speed offering over 80mph
  • This smart example was comprehensively restored in 2003
  • Recently serviced and now ready to ride
