Hi Gents, have owned my '52 Matchless G80S 500cc for a few years. Lovely restored bike by a nice chap up in North Queensland Australia. Well I actually don't own it now. So just a heads up guys as the world is a small place and you never know what will turn up. Thanks for looking fellas!

Rotten scrotes!
I've reposted your info on another bikers' forum which has several contributors living in Oz.
It's entitled 'Stolen Matchless - Australia'.

Hi Geoff
I've photographed the details on my 'phone so I can take a sneak peek at what G80s's I see.
I would find being in your position very hard to cope with.
