Henderson Matchless
« on: December 14, 2010, 04:25:26 am »






The pics are from the 1971 Hendersom Matchless powered longtrack machine.
I know that this engine was designed for use in a roadrace frame and found some information.
But is there maybe a member with some more information from this longtracker used by Don.V.Godden from England.

I remember as a snotty nosed kid watching Toombsy on that beast in the ampitheatre of Amaroo Park.
The sound and sight of him power sliding that thing was unbelievable for the day.

Like Steve , I also had the privilege of watching Toombsy on the Henderson Matchy but at both Oran Park and at Bathurst , bloody awsome !!
Also saw the barrel for the motor being picked up from Sid Willis , the bore of the thing was something to behold.
