Hi guys-------- I'm in the process of creating a "What-might-have-been" 1950's Army Despatch Riders bike for the Suez Canal period,(Hence it's in Desert sand colour), using a 500cc Classic 4-speed Bullet and based on the pictures on pages 113-114 in our hosts catalogue..The help I could do with is}---- Regimental serial markings etc............................. Do you lot know of any sites that list the markings, War Department Nos. etc for British Army vehicles ( motorcycles in particular) for this period and location ??....Technically I think I'm safe as I believe Enfield introduced the rear swing-arm idea in the 1950's ??

alan what book have you got on 113/114 i see no bike i see saddles & tool boxes!military numbers and styles could be found on re enactment group pages ont net there are loads of groups around the country. atb paul.

AH---HA!!!!!--------- if you go to page 197, look at the bottom, l/h corner, it says "Page 114" BUT that's for Tool boxes it seems !! DOH..
