Talk:Matchless

message: This needs cleanup, that which is AMC generic belongs in the AMC and it needs to be made more clear what applies to the Matchless marque. The non-encyclopedic tone needs work too. GraemeLeggett 16:42, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree but presume you mean Associated Motorcycles. unfortunately I was doing a wikify and reorganise but ended up in an edit conflict that GraemeLeggett beat me to. This page should have Matchless only related information with an appropriate link to the newer company. ww2censor 17:43, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Is matchlessmotorcycles.co.uk actually the official site of the current company? If Matchless continues to exist after ending production in the 1990s, then first the article needs to be updated with third party sources explaining that. If it's just somebody who bought the trademark and isn't building bikes, then they are not the subject of this article. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 20:40, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: There's something wrong here which overshadows the 'ophan' aspect - no sourcing and wrong title. I've only had a quick look but the originator has seemingly made a mistake in that the actual exhibit pictured at NMM is an AJS Silver Streak , but there is a Matchless Silver Hawk article. The original citation is an Australian auction house motoring club - deadlink, but probably not a reliable source anyway. I guess maybe the Wikipolice were a bit more lenient back then (2008)?I'm grateful to you as the Matchless Silver Hawk shows (in my book) a similar rear suspension set-up to Philip Vincent's earlier 'invention' - something I didn't know of on a Matchy - Vincent's being supposedly patented. I don't have anything on Ajay Silver Streak, AFAIK. --Rocknrollmancer (talk) 21:01, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Here is the Wayback Machine archive of the original source. It says Matchless became the parent company of AJS in 1931, but the Silver Streak was still under the AJS brand. I'll move the article. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 22:00, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
