  • Part of the late Alan McCoy collection
  • The AJS Model 31 CSR was a 650 'Café Racer'-styled twin-cylinder bike developed by Associated Motor Cycles (AMC) to compete with BSA's Rocket Gold Star and Triumph's Bonneville
  • The CSR designation stood for Competition/Sport/Road, though it was also known as the 'Coffee Shop Racer'
  • It was powered by a 646cc, OHV parallel-twin with a stronger nodular iron, 3-bearing crankshaft to address prior vibration issues and, with upgraded camshafts and a distinctive 'Siamese' two-into-one exhaust system, power output was rated at 46bhp @ 6,500rpm
  • The engine was housed in a full cradle, tubular duplex frame with AMC's Teledraulic telescopic forks in the front and a swinging arm with twin Girling shock absorbers in the rear
  • This example is UK registered from new and benefits from an older restoration to a good standard
  • Sold new by dealer Slocombes in London in 1961 and is fitted with a twin carb head
  • Dry stored for the last few years so probably will require some recommissioning before road use
  • Small history file included, containing AJS dating letter, copy FR60 buff log book, AJS book and some old V5Cs
  • UK-registered on a current V5C
