VSV 630

Email just received:

My dad used to own a matchless motorbike, reg: VSV 630, and it had C938941 on the fuel tank. It was from the 40's or 50's era I believe. He died when I was 8, and my mother sold it. He used to take me and my siblings in turns for rallies across the UK, and we each got badges for going, I've still got mine, also one from Luxembourg from around 1994! Anyway, since I was small, I always wanted to track it down, and buy it back, and now I'm in a position to actually buy it back, I wanted to search. I though this would be a good place to start, to see if you could let me know if anyone in this club knows of it? The club my dad was part of, was the Newbury owners club in Berkshire.

The email came in from the son of Charles Marshall.
As usual, I will pass on details if available.

The club held an International rally in Luxembourg, but that was in 1986. In 1994 the International rally was in Ireland
C938941 was a bike serial number within Contract no. C9841.
The above link's are for a Spare parts list, Workshop manual and Driver's handbook for Contract no. C9841 bikes.
Happy Christmas from the club.

Charles did state 1994 ? Paul.
I did have 1986 and 1993 down as when the rally was in Luxembourg. I then edited my posting, adding in 1994 the rally was in Ireland.
I made an error and deleted text. I now see I took out 1993, thanks for spotting I did not mention 1993
