The BSA B33 looked almost identical to the AJS right down to the transmission, oil tank and tool box. Both are big bore thumpers. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJS_18

In my younger days I really wanted one of these. But I did have a few Triumph's ,Bsa, Norton's,Enfeilds,and one Matchless. Always seamed to find the ones with wiring problems CHEAP.

Lucas has left a lot of guys stranded without spark or lights... or both over the years.
To call Lucas the Prince of darkness is being too kind ;D

The second one looks like a Lightning...but the first bike is an AJS I kind of figured that the first one was an AJS? (someone had already guessed that), I was referring to the BSA!

I posted that picture of the BSA because when I saw that AJS that is what I thought of....Brit with the same early styling in my mind.I for sure did not know what an AJS was.
