There is a small picture of the Harley-Davidson MT-500 on the FIRST IOWA

CAVALRY home page.
Do you have some more info on it? It is O.D. It is (was) used by the
U.S.
Army? Where can I see a larger picture?
Thank you!

Raimonmdo,

    The "Harley-Davidson" MT-500 is a British-made motorcycle actually
made by ARMSTRONG. Armstrong (1980-1987) was initially a car parts
manufacturer that purchased motorcycle manufacturers COTTON and CCM.
The MT-500 is a ROTAX engined motorcycle originally produced for the
Englinsh Army. In 1987, Armstrong sold the rights to the MT-500 to H-D.

    There is a gentleman who posted some info to the BB a while back and
had one for sale. I have the information if you want it.

Sincerely,

Jan R. Smith
FOR SALE: 1944 H-D 42WLA
