The british Armstrong didn't have electric start.
On top of your right side pannier frame, you can see some holes that were pre-drilled to install a mounting bracket for the then in use 9mm Sterling smg.
I'll try to find some photographs of it somewhere....
Now all I have is a canadian klr250. A wholo lot more reliable but it's just not the same...

Is it at "l'épopé de la Moto"? I've seen it before lol. As for the Sterling machine gun I have an airsoft copy in the mail and I've found a mounting braket for it :P
