Previous owner was in the RAF and the bike regularly took trips in his RAF aircraft (C17/ Atlas)when overseas. His advice was the bike was imported from the USA in 2017 by a retired RAF aircraft engineer and then him. I’ve attached a great image of the bike hitch to the back of his 1962 Land Rover defender. Cared for and highly original. It fired up no problem despite it been sat for over a year !

I’m not skint and in two minds about selling but if the right owner and offer wants it then come have a look. Originality was the thing that attracted me and its previous ownership.
