Just pulled from a barn a 1961 Matchless 600 single I was told by the owner that is a rare bike and im trying to learn all I can about it and maybe sell it , all original and it runs.He has had the bike since 1966 and at one time painted it gold he told me it was originaly black.Any help out there?
