The Matchless G5, produced by Associated Motor Cycles (AMC) in the early 1960s, is a lightweight 350cc single-cylinder motorcycle. Known for its reliability and robust design, the G5 was a popular choice for daily commuting and long-distance rides. It features a 348cc overhead-valve engine, which delivers a modest but dependable performance suitable for both urban and rural settings. The G5 is equipped with a four-speed gearbox and a positive-stop foot shift, an innovative feature at the time. The bike also includes a swinging arm rear suspension with hydraulic dampers, which provide a smoother ride compared to earlier rigid frame models.

This particular model has been built from parts by its previous owner, who used it as a primary mode of transport. Over the years, he collected parts to keep his bike running and eventually assembled this G5 from those components. In good running order, this machine has been used and enjoyed for many years. Whether you’re looking for a reliable ride or a rewarding restoration project, this Matchless G5 is a versatile option for any classic motorcycle enthusiast. It is offered with a current V5C on file. Please not this machine now does not run, maybe due to an electrical fault.
