Associated Motor Cycles (AMC) was formed in 1938, as a parent company for Matchless and AJS motorcycles. AMC later (postwar) absorbed Francis-Barnett, James, and Norton. In 1941 Matchless motorcycles introduced telescopic front forks called "Teledraulic" forks, considered by some to be the first major innovation in British front suspension in 25 years. By 1956 they had eight models in their line up, but the number had dwindled in 1965. The G3L was the first to feature the "Teledraulic" front forks.

This very striking Matchless G11 has been fully restored and has formed a part of a collection of machines and used sparingly during that time. The machine has been in storage since last winter, however, it has been running recently. An ideal machine to use for the summer months ahead, it is also very attractive as a collector's motorcycle, being a correct numbers machine. It is offered with a current V5C.
