WAR...what is it good for?

Absolutely nothing...

John Newman


Absolutely nothing, to answer the question from the great Temptations song. But there are those among us who seem to have a unquenchable historical interest in that most negative and  destructive aspect of human nature.

Having recently come across a website that sells all the ex military paraphenalia you can imagine; amongst which is some very interesting motorcycling historia I can understand how one might be attracted to turn up at a ride out or the local biker cafe on one if these.

How about this CJ750 sidecar outfit for sale in Cornwall? Or a 1943 Harley Davidson available in W Yorkshire?

If you don't mind going further afield, there's a lovely Zundapp KS750 outfit in Italy – I want this one!

And a BSA WB30 restoration project in Malta, open to sensible offers.

For £1350 you could acquire a 125cc Gagiva two stroke French Army bike in good running order.
