1955 AJS M20 - sunday ride around Trondheim (video)

Post by GSAX1 »

Hi all.

A short video I made - a sunday ride on my 1955 AJS Model 20. Not the most professional filming, but some nice scenery and shots of the bike.

Also a quick walkaround of the same bike, for those that want to see spesific details. It is very original and not 'restored', so should be good for reference. The exhaust pipes and silencers were changed by the previous owner, otherwise the rest of the chrome and paint is original.

Don't know about a Norwegian IJR, but you are always welcome in Norway :).
