Hi
I am sorry if this post is in the wrong section of the forum but I am new to armorama. Anyway....
Does anyone know if the Honda motorbike currently used by the british army is the same as the motorbike used by the JGSDF. If it is not does anyone know if their is a company that makes either the british army Honda or Harley Davidson motorbikes in 1/35. Also if there is and neither comes with a rider is their any company that makes a 1/35 British army motorbike rider?
Cheers
Nick

No idea if it is the same bike, or close, but DML also does a motorcycle mounted US Scout from ODS era.

This is what the british army is working with now ( eligible for the on 2 wheels campaign btw )

If I recall correctly , the motorcycle from the DML set is a Suzuki .
