Frame number 20660
Contract number C9841
Delivery date 15/02/41
Engine number 41-G3L-51384
I'll post some pictures soon, but one of the main reasons for mentioning it here, is that I have read recently, that the Canadian Army used these during WW2. Would anyone know if the contract number above was for the Canadians ?
The bike is 95% complete, but requires minor odds and ends sorting
I look forward to your replies
Keith

Keith
I have the drivers handbook but there is no contract # on it..but Canadians did use them..
