    I saw the rear end on the '29 AJS video. I guessed weird sidecar. Well, sort of. 😂

    When I was at university in the 1960s a fellow student named Andy had an S7. It had a dual seat, unlike this one. Andy gave me lifts on the S7 several times. Birmingham uni 1962-66. I wonder if Andy is still around.

    Powered by a 1.5 litre opel petrol engine i believe. Apparently after the war many of these were acquired by european farmers for logging and shifting/pulling things.

    If a friend told you to shut your eyes, as he had a new machine to show you, and then asked you to guess what it is purely from the engine note, I honestly think most would say Tank, even before it moves? What is it about these sort of vehicles that creates that uniquely ‘tank’ sound? What a fabulous machine. 👍❤️✅😎

    Anything with so-called Caterpillar tracks is a nightmare to maintain! Even modern ones with so-called `sealed tracks!' This will need constant greasing/tensioning but the `grin' factor may help to mitigae against that!

    Dad always says that AJS went broke because the quality was too good. Nearly 100 years old and only a coat of old paint required. Not dad, he's only 95. 😂 Just realised that this bike is exactly 95 too.

    Had an A10 with an end fed crank conversion, spitfire cam, BTH magneto and 8:1 compression. It sounded much sharper and free revving, it also ticked over steadily at lower revs. Just required its single carb tickling to start it. I ran it with a Norton commando fork with TLS. This bike is just bright and shiney.

    My dad’s best friend had one when they were new. A deserved rep as a hairy-chested, rambunctious, handful. “A lot of bike.” I’ve got a Honda XR650L which is conceptually quite similar, only with 50% more capacity, that would absolutely wax a Victor in almost any contest or comparison, but is almost comically mild mannered.
