Re: Dropped motorbikes
Hello dear Contributors,
what helpful and surprising answers.
An older time witness lectured about the first motorbikes in his village as far as he could remember (boy age, ca 1950)
His first memory is a red BSA 500, the saying was it should be a captured English bike, which was dropped from an English plane.
Now, by your help, it was definitely not a dropped WELBIKE.
Later, on the BSA 500 there was an engraved swastika discovered, and NSU was painted roughly on the petrol tank. No authentical documents could ever be presented for that vehicle.......
Many thanks for your great information.
