A.J. Stevens & Co Ltd produced motorcycles from 1897 and soon developed their own engines including parallel twins and vee twin designs sold under the more recognisable AJS name. Success in racing soon followed with Eric William's win in the 1914 TT, the firm also taking second, third, fourth and sixth places beginning a long line of sporting achievements. An amalgamation with Matchless in 1931 formed Associated Motor Cycles which continued until the group's closure in the mid-60s.

The AJS Model 12 from 1936 was a smaller version of the 350cc Matchless Model 35/G3 with an upright cylinder and a low level exhaust. Quite a sporting model in its day featuring overhead valves, when most 250s were still side valves, matched to a Burman gearbox and rigid chassis with girder forks. This example is an older restoration that has been stood for a while so will need recommissioning. It comes supplied with a continuation green log book and a current V5C.
