AJR is a Catalan company that manufactures roadracing motorcycles, based in La Garriga, Vallès Oriental. Founded in 1994 by Armand Molí and Javier Pérez, its corporate name is AJR Motocicletas.

After starting its activity by creating replicas of historical racing motorcycles, since 2009 it has manufactured a Moto 2 machine which in addition to being well priced is quite competitive, having obtained good results in the Spanish Championship. In the 2012 season, AJR officially competes in the Moto2 World Championship with the Argiñano Racing team (of the Basque chef Karlos Argiñano ) and with Ricard Cardús as pilot.

AJR began by creating replicas of historical models for classic motorcycle championships. Their first creation was a replica of the Bultaco TSS 350 which achieved several successes in state races for this type of motorcycle. In view of the success, the company went on to develop others, such as the Astro 450, the Matador 400 or the Pursang MK15.

The first Moto2 category competition motorcycle manufactured by AJR was the 2010 EVO 1, with a multi-tubular chrome - molybdenum chassis and aluminum swingarm, designed as a low-cost Moto2. This motorcycle participated in the 2010 Campionat d'Espanya de velocitat (CEV) and in a World Championship race where, ridden by Xavier Forés, it finished in sixteenth position (one place short of scoring points). AJR returned to the CEV in 2011, achieving its first podium finish in the fifth race (held at the Albacete circuit) with Adrià Bonastre finishing third.

During the first Barcelona Motorsport Show, the company presented a new evolution of the motorcycle under the name EVO 2011. This motorcycle debuted at the penultimate round of the 2011 CEV, at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Cheste.

A post on Justbikes, an Australian sales site, reads: "AJR BULTACO TSS350 (two units). One is brand-new and the other is the current Spanish Championship leader (in the 350 2T/500 4T category). AJR (Factory bike) created a very limited number of Bultaco replicas in the 90s. The motorbikes come with many original spare parts."
