Ladies & Gentlemen,
Pictures to follow. thank you all for your comments, some very helpful, others not! Further information to date this particular bike was exported to Argentina, where it was ordered through the AJS/ Matchless dealership at the time. I think you John.K has nearly got it right. I am told by the AMC specialist it was to compete against the Harley Davidson and the Indians at the time, especially for the Police forces, with a left-hand handlebar throttle. I will let you think about that for a while as I know the answer! I have resolved the problem with the wheel bearing, I have purchased them off the shelf. My problem now is getting the settings of the front forks, but I will follow the basic instructions from Percival & Webb unless anyone can point me in the right direction with measurements, again everyone's input and help is very much appreciated. I remind everyone that AJS & Matchless throw all their existing stock into the scrap merchants on the assumption that everyone was going to buy new motorcycles, that information is from a senior director at the time. He told me this just a few days ago.

There were two types of frames, one for solo use and one for side-car, I was told this by an AMC specialist. Further to this, there are differences between the Matchless and the AJS minor details but very important. It was not a badge swap! Circa 1949 Matchless AJS destroyed all pre-war spares, on the basis that everyone was buying new motorcycles. Funny old world. Here in 2020 96 years later, I have a beautiful example of a V-Twin, which needs some T.L.C. but alas not too much information, or I should say contrary information.
But thank you for your input.
