crustyone Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 A friend asked me the other day what Motorcycles the Western forces used in the 80's and I realised the only one I could think of was the Can Am Bombardier, which I believe was used by the UK, Belgium and Canada but I have no idea what the US or Germany used can anyone shed some light on the subject for me, even better if you can point me to somewhere on the Web so I can show him. Thanks Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 It's a bit beyond my era of interest. But there was also the Rotax engined Armstrong MT500, during the 80's. There was also a 350 version and some badged as Harley Davidson, but I think these came later in the 90's? Ron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crustyone Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 Thanks Ron, that at least gives me a direction to start researching :cheesy: Kev. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWS Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 (edited) Thanks Ron, that at least gives me a direction to start researching :cheesy: Kev. If it helps, whilst serving with the RAF Police in Germany during the early 1980s, I rode a Triumph TR6 750cc on patrol. We also rode Armstrong MT500s on exercise. That's me in the sunglasses.
