Do you have a photo and a serial number.
If it's a 1940 American military bike would have an engine case number starting with CDO. 1941 would be CDA, 1942 = CDB This link takes you to a nifty serial and model number guide. http://www.amcaotc.org/threads/india...al_numbers.htm

Licence plate
George,
How about a photo of the plate and the bike? From what you described we don't know if its a military plate or a civilian one and what country potentially issued it. Is the serial number 3441....? Must have been towing some pretty small aircraft with about 25hp there were better choices around.
