1957 AJS 348cc Model 16MS Registration no. PWN 60 Frame no. A57367 Engine no. 57/16MS 32191 The typical British '350' of the 1950s was unlikely to be anyone's first choice as a fast sports bike. Rather, these honest, workaday mounts were chosen for other reasons, chiefly their inherent strength, dependability and economy. Testing one of AMC's stalwart 350cc tourers in 1961, Motor Cycling recorded a modest mean top speed of 76mph but found that when toured at a relaxed pace across country, an excellent 86 miles per gallon was achievable. Although limited, Motor Cycling's experience confirmed that such a machine was light on the pocket, 'both for running costs and for the equally important, though less easily assessed, maintenance/repair factor'. This AJS Model 16MS's history is not known prior to its purchase by the vendor in 1997, since when it has not been used (the odometer reading is 20,265 miles). Recommissioning will be required before this motorcycle returns to the road and thus it is sold strictly as viewed (the engine turns over). The machine is offered with an old-style V5C Registration Certificate, copy V5 and an old-style continuation logbook. It should be noted that these documents incorrectly record the engine capacity as 500cc. Key not required Footnotes: All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding.
