Matchless Model X: Cylinder Head Refurb and Ignition Timing 

Over the Winter I Decided to try and sort the Matchless Model X out properly. The bike was now running, but there were still a lot of jobs to be done. I therefore stripped some parts off the bike to have them re-chromed or chromed, the cylinder heads were removed to replace the leaking head gaskets (and repaint the barrels and heads), the carburettor serviced to improve starting and the toolbox repainted black to reduce the amount of red.
