AJS Motors

AJS was a British motorcycle manufacturer that was founded in 1909 by the Stevens brothers. The company was known for producing high-quality, reliable motorcycles that were popular with both commuters and sports riders. In the 1950s, AJS began producing trials motorcycles, which were designed to be capable of tackling tough off-road terrain. These bikes were powered by single-cylinder engines and featured lightweight frames, making them agile and capable on the trails. Throughout the 1960s and 1970s, AJS continued to develop its range of trials bikes, introducing a number of new models including the Porcupine, the Gazelle, and the Stormer. These bikes were popular with riders looking for reliable and capable machines for tackling challenging trials terrain. In the 1980s, AJS was acquired by the British company Norton Villiers Triumph, and production of its trials bikes came to an end. However, the company's legacy as a producer of high-quality trials motorcycles lives on, and its bikes are still highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
