S&S 117 cubers are now going to be powering the new Matchless range. At this stage only one model is under development. Stay tuned....

Not to many s&s fans i guess....

Do you have a link to this info?

117 Cubic inch's?
I thought Matchless Made Cafe's and Gentleman bikes. (If you know what I mean.)

 

looks a bit like a "Vincent" to me.

 

 

interesting to say the least . . .

Yes i can see both Hell cat and Vincent. When you look at the otherside you will notice that it has the rear head turned so that the exhaust exits forward rather than the usual backwards.

i wanna see it in real life. this is good news. im guessing it will be a class ride, who is making it??

Without their own engine it's not a Matchless. They should learn from the failed attempt by Indian and stick to making $200 T-shirts.

thats an interesting point... but... these day sbrand names are a tradeable commodity

is a mini no longer a mini if its made by BMW. Alex Isiginis would turn in his grave.

If an HD has a motor designed by Porche is it still HD.

If the same bike has its bearings made by an unknown manufacturer who doesnt even use a bearing code.is it still pure HD.

has there ever been a real Holden. most atr either fitted with other manufacturers engines  eg  Nissan.. or are british Vauxhall, or German Opal, some are just rebadged Isuzu, or rebadged Suzuki.

Is S&S even X&S anymore as it is a corporation now, there ate no employees or management from the Smith family.

Did Jaguar end with Sir Willian Lyons at the XJ6 and if not is it still a JAG now its owned bt Tarta (India)

Just a few thoughts
