Hi to all
I'm new here , member of Lithuanian MCC , about 25 years ago I had AJS bike , but unfortunately lacked many details ... Now i have two Zuendapps - K 800 w and KS 600 w , Wehrmacht mashines .
Few days ago I've found a bike frame, I suspect that this may be AJS . Need your help , maybe you could identify?

I had a 1938 Zundapp K800 while in Germany in the early 50s. 800cc, boxer four, sidevalve, a very rare bike. I could not afford one now. Cheers, Don.

some frame numbers and better photos would help; those links make my computer freeze.

You would be better to ask the pre-war group. There were several of those Zundapp in the museum we visited at the International in Poland. I think the museum was near Gdynia? dave.

This is quite an old frame, note the push bike type front brake laying there known as Sturrup brake. I do not think its AJS, note the T piece comming off the seat stem tube, also the frame at the bottom where the gear box fits. this does not look like AJS to me. The frame could date pre 1920 with that primitive front brake.

I'm sorry, I didn't understand - what is the connection between that old frame and the Zündapps in Poland

Thanks , Rob . One thing is already proven - it's not AJS Unfortunately, the question remains open ...
