When I went to college I bought my first motorcycle. It was 1969 and I had been riding my buddies Triumph Tiger 650 and was in love with bikes. My buddy had owned a AJS twin and thought it was a good bike. I ran into a 1956 AJS 500 single and blew all my money on it. It never ran. I had to tow it to start it. It had Lucas electric s and an Amal carb with a oil fill knob that caught my knee every time I kicked it. My next bike was my 350 four Honda. Night and day.
