I'm having trouble with the kickstart on my 53 matchless g3ls,burman gearbox.New kickstart quadrant,new return spring,new gear cog pinnion.The kickstart is just jamming at the top,pulling clutch,rocking bike does nothing. First short tooth on the kickstart quadrant and the next one mesh with the gearshaft cog but then it jams??Gear shaft just wont turn??

excellent!!

Nice bike, the handlebars are wrong, they look like Triumph to me. Rev counter may be wrong. My 1963 650SS has a Chronometric but my 1964 Atlas has a Smiths clock as you have here. Enjoy!

This was helpful,I realized I lost the fiber washer at the bottom of damper tube. And is the paper washer, between the brass bushing and the rubber oil seal necessary?

Anyone who's ever worked on a AMC will tell how much better the engineering standards are when compared to other British bikes

What an amazing variety of makes and models on display. Such an eclectic collection. I especially like the beautiful Ivory Calthorpe from the 1930’s. And the Scott Squirrels.

its a all day job ?

Love it, i was shouting and hollering. Well don!

0 to 60 in 3 years

As a Yankee biker, I loved this. Swap meets are the same everywhere, but I loved seeing all those old English bikes.

Interesting center bearing. Very complex compared to BSA, Norton and Triumph. But Matchless went out of business before all the others. Better does not mean more successful.

If only i could get this last valve spring in by hand, then ill be doing that in no time. My hand is s complete swollen mess no time to order tool, ive got a rally coming up soon in Sweden. Where do you live buddy? Poland is a guess. Man that looks like a nice ride

I have a 52 G80... Such lovely machines..

If this museum isn't too far from my house, I'd like to visit it on my motorcycle.

This is useful.. Thank you.. I have a 52 G80 with a sloppy gear change Bush..

Sammy Miller is a literal living legend from the Golden Era of motorcycles. Saw him about 40 years ago at the Talmag Trials event, well into his retirement. As far as I know he still occasionally rides his competition-winning bikes. He must be close to 100 years old. And yes, I am using literal in the literal sense.

great music

Still remember as a young fella in the late 70s and 80s going into Wollongong here in Australia into a shop owned by an old fella who wore a big grey over coat and had a store like the one in this video with a mixed of then new bikes as well as classic bikes and had old 40s and 50s photos from his days of scrambling over in the UK. Thanks for sharing when you look at bike shops today here in Australia you’ll never find a shop like this here which is somewhat sad. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I too visited . Took a trials school from Sam in Ontario Canada.Probably assembled the Sherpa T he used. Built a Suzuki 250 Miller frame etc. 182 lbs wet fond memories

I visited this museum in 1994 with my wife my brother and his wife, I think it was called the National motorcycle museum then!!?? I took a video until my battery died. An incredible collection. It appears to have expanded quite a bit.

Moving the camera too quickly causes nausea .

Do they ever look nice.

What a beautiful machine! Sounds amazing!

just adding this to my summer bucket list

Interesting to watch thanks for posting... 👍

A lovely little video to watch to start the weekend and think about all motorcycles and the impending summer ahead.

Are the parts really interchangeable? Surely working on one side then the other or keeping them on seperate sides of the workbench is advisable

Been meaning to go for years I think I will mention it to my biker friends and try to get down there this year, thanks for a great video 👍

More like a museum not a motorcycle shop like I remember. Mistake in heading?

17 quid to look at a heap of old oilers.... inflation has really hit hard

Back in the late 1950s and beginning of the 1960s, there was a small motorcycle shop on the west side of Grand Rapids, Michigan called John Esler's Cycle - he sold NEW British motorcycles. His dealership carried, BSA, TRIUMPH, AJS, NORTON, ROYAL ENFIELD, SUNBEAM, and ARIEL, as well as a back room stocked full of old used motorcycles from every manufacturer. My father was just getting into motorcycles and he would buy accessories and parts from Esler's. I loved going there with him because that shop smelled of oil, leather, and rubber, and it was delicious to my senses. On another side of town, but out of Grand Rapids - was a dealership that carried English, German, and Italian motorcycles called Grand Valley Motorcycles. That place was way out in the countryside of Kent County on a dirt/gravel road. It too smelled of motorcycle heaven. My father bought his Ducati from them. There was also a Harley Davidson Dealership in Grand Rapids. Later, my dad purchased his Harley Davidson from them. The memories of those places sparked my interest in motorcycles... and I have a very special place in my soul for British Classic motorcycles and sportscars. I still have my 1953 BSA 650 Golden Flash and a 1956 BSA 500 Shooting Star. Both run and both are restored. Both are NOT for sale.

Awesome!

It took him that long to catch a 99?

Old or new,bikes are great 🇬🇧👍

Oh my word.

Nice bikes👌

I had a '71 roadster. It looked and sounded GREAT!

What’s happened to the sound?

they realy wind them up.

where is this held please.

Had the AJS Mod 20 ,great bike but suffered with oil leak from the dynamo connection to crankcase.

Il roule bien le gars, malin et prudent pour doubler, et sa bécane envoie le pâté !👍

I had S/N - 000103. I surely miss it.

Was the racing G45 from this basic model ?

Nice...

Love the video. Music is excellent and the blur effect is cool. But I wish when you paused to look at each bike up close, it would hold focus and not go into that video effect so much. Otherwise a great video. Just my opinion.
