1961 Matchless 350 G3C Trials model. Not Registered with the DVLA. Frame Number C9854, Engine Number 61/G3C2233.
Sold with a 2003 Dating and authenticity Certificate from the AJS and Matchless Owners Club.
Using designs evolved from the wartime G3 model, AMC were a dominant force in the UK trials arena during the post war period.
Famous works riders Artie Radcliffe and Ted Usher for Matchless, and Hugh Viney and Gordon Jackson for AJS could regularly be seen winning national events, which promoted the popularity of the company's products at clubman level.
The lighter, sweet handling 350 was more popular than the punchier but less nimble 500 with both works riders and amateurs alike.
C/9854 is an attractive and usable "matching numbers" bike, which has been sympathetically updated for, and occasionally used in, Pre-65 trials events with the Yorkshire Classic MCC, up to being retired.
The specification includes Alloy rims with stainless spokes, side pull throttle, amongst other features.
