AJS 7R.
AJS introduced a new chain driven OHC single cylinder racer for the 1948 season. Named the 7R it became a legend, winning numerous races at all levels including the Manx and Grand Prix.
It was still a chain-driven OHC single four stroke, but otherwise all new with an elegant duplex cradle frame, Teledraulic forks, conical hubs with a twin leading shoe front brake and a pivoted fork rear end.
Output rose steadily from an initial 29bhp with continued development throughout its production life with the final models producing around 39bhp.
This nimble, well performing 350cc single was to be a major contender in the domestic junior racing class until 1961 with victories first for the factory, then for privateers when made available from 1954, a tradition that it continues today in classic events.
7R’s won the 1961, 62 and 63 Junior Manx TT races whilst its’ greatest achievement was in the hands of Bob McIntyre in 1952, when he won the Junior Manx GP and also took second place in the Senior event on the same machine.
After withdrawing from works and one-off road racing in 1954, AJS made a production version of the standard two valve AJS 7R for privateers and a 500cc version, badged as a Matchless G50.
The two valve OHC AJS 7R engine produced over 40bhp with a top speed of 115mph by the end of production in 1963.
