Review
The 1960 AJS 14 250 offers a taste of motorcycling from a bygone era, centered around its 248cc engine. Its weight of 149 kg (328.5 pounds) is typical for motorcycles of this period, and the 12.5-liter fuel tank provides a reasonable range for various riding situations. The seat height is 760mm. Equipped with telescopic front suspension, the 1960 AJS 14 250 aimed to provide a more comfortable and controlled ride compared to older designs. A 4-speed gearbox offers a range of ratios for the engine's power. The reliance on an expanding drum brake at the front, a standard braking system for the time, provides adequate stopping power but lacks the performance of modern disc brakes. This motorcycle is primarily aimed towards enthusiasts of vintage motorcycles and those who appreciate the aesthetics and mechanical simplicity of classic British bikes. It offers a nostalgic riding experience, appealing to those who value the connection with motorcycling history and are willing to accept the limitations in performance and technology compared to contemporary machines. It's a piece of motorcycling heritage.
