Matchless Sports Single 1929

Country: England

Description

The factory produced motorcycles from 1899 to 1966. A conventional machine of the period this particular bike was built two years after the introduction of the model.

Rated at 5oocc with exposed OHV gear, nicely valanced guards, and upswept pipes from the single cylinder twin port head it had quite a sporty appearance. Also typical of the period was the hand gear change on this machine with a neat gate on the right side of the tank.
