This AJS & Matchless Parts and Spares Index is a collection of businesses and individuals from which I have obtained spares (with the exception of those marked * ) to get my machine on the road. Please mention this web page if you go on to contact any of these detailed below. If you have any comments regarding this page or know of a supplier that you think should be mentioned then feel free to e-mail me at rkn704@richard-norman.freeserve.co.uk
Please Note. I do not supply parts or spares myself.

Comprehensive 40+ page catalogue.
Autojumbles. Most weekends there is an Autojumble taking place somewhere. Some
are attached to Shows but most are an event in their own right. If you are not receiving
a publication like Old Bike Mart which lists all these events then have a look in a Classic Bike
magazine at you local news agents. The amount of Autojumble at a large show such as the
International Classic Bike Show (April) takes me literally all day to sort through
and I'm not a serious Autojumbler by any means.
EBAY. You will find all sorts junk to fill your house with on Ebay but there are some great bargains to be had. Anybody can register for free. Its worth signing up for PayPal as well, this allows you to purchase items from sellers via your Credit Cards. Delivery of the items you buy is much quicker if you don't have to wait for a cheque to clear.
Read their tips on using the search facility to its full potential. Always look for items that have been incorrectly spelled or are in the wrong category. These items will be relatively cheap as most ebay users will not find them.
