Summary
editDescriptionAJS Motorcycle Centenary - Retreat Street Works - geograph.org.uk - 1582005.jpg |
English: AJS Motorcycle Centenary - Retreat Street Works AJS Motorcycles and Company Limited was founded on 14th November 1909. The Stevens brothers had specialised in the manufacture and supply of engines to other manufacturers including Clyno and Wearwell. The demise of Wearwell in 1909 and loss of a major outlet for their products prompted the brothers to manufacture their own motorcycles. Initially the bikes were assembled in Retreat Street with engines and frames produced at their Pelham Street Works.
A group of enthusiasts gathered to mark the occasion with several historic 1920s cycles on display. |
