The Matchless G50 is an historic racing British motorcycle made by Associated Motorcycles (AMC) at the former Matchless works in Plumstead, London. Developed in 1958 from the 350 cc AJS 7R, but with the engine capacity increased to 500cc, 180 G50s were built in the next four years. Although less powerful than its main competitor the Norton Manx the G50 proved highly competitive at three hundred pounds and was faster round bends. If success is measured by longevity then this is the most successful Matchless motorcycle, and high-specification replicas are still being produced to this day, although financial problems at AMC ended production in 1963.

Offered here is a replica G50 engine complete, as built by Ron Lewis 2016. The original weighed in at 496cc (51hp@7,200rpm when new). These engines have been used for classic racing in its time, along with the 7R. We are informed by the vendor that it was checked over and is ready to race again. Ideal for a project bike or with the 7R for 350 and 500 races. Sold as viewed and or as per the pictures.
