Just before I left N-V, the factory sponsored a team in the ISDT. The riders were from the Royal Air Force Motorsports Association.
We built four bikes, 3 were AJS 250cc machines and the fourth was a Matchless 350. Unless you were familiar with the product line then, it wouldn't register that these were actually street/trail versions of our Villiers Starmaker-powered motocross bikes. They were fitted with wide-ratio gears, spark arrestor tailpipes and a lighting system off the 9E Villiers engine.
I'd be interested to know if any of them survived.
