Matchless G45 racer engine 1976 motorcycle racing photo press photograph

Description

A superb and rare photo of the
Matchless 500cc G45
in 1976.
In 1953 the Matchless G45 was introduced. The bore and stroke were 66 x
72 mm
(2,60 x
2,83”
) and it delivered a power output of 48 bhp at 7,200 r.p.m. The G45 immediately was seen as a big racing promise. No less then 14 bikes were entered for the 1953 Senior T.T. on the isle of
Man.
Amongst them some big names like Phil Heath, Arthur Wheeler and Bob McIntrye. Ultimately the first three G45’s would finish in 9th, 14th and 24th place, after all the big names on the G45’s either crashed or retired.
We have more photos listed on Ebay and in the store of Matchless G45 ‘s, other bikes, and various motorcycle world champions on various kinds of machinery.
