AJS Model 20 1956,
I am looking at purchasing a crank shaft for the above bike does anyone know what the following markings mean '5' 'M18' & 'A' (see attached pictures) I thought the M18 may indicate a 500 single but as you can see from the photo it is a twin crankshaft. The crank pins measure 1.616" (-050") this could be the '5' marking?
The Webs (not sure if that is the correct name) where the markings are, are of a different shape to my original, could this indicate that it is not for a 500cc?
Any information on identifing the crankshaft would be appreciated

Stuart.
