1967 Matchless 500 , 1967 Matchless G85CS Scrambler One of less than 100. Beautiful and correctly restored in 1998 by Robert Allen. The bike was last started in June 2001, ridden around my yard and parked in my family room or office since. I have kicked it over enough to circulate oil a few times a year. Includes a folder containing history, restoration documentation and an original G85CS - G80CS - P11 Maintenance and Instruction MANUAL in near perfect condition. This is a great piece for the Triumph or BSA Collector. Serious offers by serious buyers will be considered. I am selling only because the office spot has been taken by another bike. The Matchless G85CS was a fine, handcrafted off road only scrambles racer built to a higher standard than any previously sold to the general public through dealerships. It had less standard Matchless components on it than anything this side of a G50 road racer! As trim as they were (around 300 lb) these bikes were not overwhelmed with brute horsepower and did weigh a good deal more than the rapidly improving two strokes they ran against. The G85 is the direct predecessor to the P-11 Norton which has basically the same frame. It is commonly reported that the P-11 was born as a result of the west coast distributor installing a 750 Norton twin in a G-85 frame and sending it back to the factory with the instruction "Build This". The frame was bronze brazed Reynold 531 (Brit for Chrome Moly) in a design clearly derived from the Rickman brothers Matisse. The front forks appear standard, the front hub has the cooling fins removed giving it a unique appearance and saving a few ounces of weight. The rear hub and brake plate are "Elektron" magnesium alloy items of G-50 road racer derivation. Foot peg hangers, rear brake lever and other parts are fabricated from tubing rather than cast. The bike came with a fiberglass fuel tank and side covers. The aluminum oil tank was a very complex shape welded up from sheet. This was reportedly done with oxy-acetylene as TIG was not yet common practice. Perhaps the least practical feature was the 1-3/8 AMAL GP carburetor, which has tight inner clearances that do not do well with grit and dust. The ignition is by Lucas Magneto and these generally gave adequate service. Yes they did come with that ridiculous stubby front fender. How many survive today?? 303-499-5186 $21,000.00 3034995186

Up for Sale 1963 Moto Guzzi Falcon 500 Sport. Very stock original machine thats been well kept. I purchased this Vintage Beauty along with 2 Other Motorcycles at an Estate Liquidation. The seller would only sell all 3 Motorcycles together. The 1980 Ducati 900SS was what I was after, determined not to walk away without her I purchased all 3 motorcycles for a small fortune. I am simply trying to get some of my investment back. Your chance to have an extremely rare Vintage Italian piece of art work. The only minimal negatives: Missing one side of the passenger pegs, The needle on the Speedo is broken off, part of the clutch needs some attention, (have new part) some signs of wear on the original paint. I also believe the mount holding the tachometer is not original I have Certificate of Death from the Original owner and all the correct paperwork to register the Motorcycle in California and obtain a new pink-slip. First reasonable offer, I put a high price on her to hopefully fend off any low baller- re-sellers. This Motorcycle needs to go to the right collector. FYI this is a true 1963 Falcone Sport not a police bike that was made up to look like one. Motorcycle Includes original owners manual and parts catalog, all in Italian.

1966 Norton Other , Due to "MATCHLESS" not being one of the available posting Brand names, Norton was the next best thing, since they are extremely closely associated, as those of you aficionados know. Here is a 100% restored 1966 Matchless 750 twin cylinder. it is in stunning shape! I prefer trading toward the right '50-'56 plunger twin, but would sell outright. This is a matching numbers show-level G15 CS bike that has had over 15k invested in it and it is the last year of Matchless that was produced in the actual "Matchless" factory, before all kinds of merging of various British brands and outsourcing started to happen. Additionally, there were only 500 of these produced, so they're about as rare as hens' teeth, as for the Matchless marque. EVERYthing has been rebuilt/restored/re-worked on this classic beauty. It is a show bike in every sense, but if you wanted to ride it, get ready, because it thunders with the 750 cc motor. Recent new tires make it perfectly road-ready. Starts on about 3rd kick, dead cold. Restored Tachometer and Odometer, which shows 1450 miles since rebuild. To finish it perfectly, the bike only needs a couple of rubbers for foot-pegs, kick start and shift lever. Here is the only reference I could find that's even close to what my bike is all about: http://www.britcycle.com/bikes/forsale/JSonny_66_Nor_Match_G15CSR.htm As for my wish of a trade scenario, I'm interested ONLY in most 1956 or below BMW "plunger" type twin cylinder bikes, (not R50 or R60 or /2. Perhaps the right R69 or R69s) so let me know what you have, if this bike talks to you and we'll go from there. Boxer twins: R51/2, R51/3, 600 cc R67, R67/2, R67/3, R68 (built from 1950,1951,1952,1953,1954,1955 to 1956, '50 '51 '52 '53 '54 '55 '56) ********************************************************************** ----------------------CALLS ONLY please 5o3nine98three78six $10,900.00
