AMC built a small number of competition singles for the 1946 season, totaling 100 machines, evenly split between Matchless and AJS. Differences between the standard machine and the competition singles were limited to items such as swept-up exhaust, alloy mudguards, a 21 inch front wheel and a four-inch section rear. With production being the primary concern changes over the next three years were limited, however, for 1950 the competition singles became more focused. The engine became all alloy and the wheelbase was reduced.

The 1963 AJS 16C on offer has been with the vendor for the last five years, in his ownership he has completed many jobs on the machine and it is presented very nicely and running well, with an addition from standard of an aluminium oil tank. The machine has correct numbers from new, as per the original RF60 log book. There is a file full of receipts and paperwork relating to the machine with an original RF60 log book current V5C and workshop manual.
