Welbike Airborne motorcycle

The Welbike Airborne Motorcycle, a considerably smaller version than the motorcycles designed for gliderborne and full parachute-drop capability, was used during the Second World War.

It was designed to fit in the Container Light Equipment, the handle bars folding flat, and seat retracting down level with the fuel tank. The post-war civilian version was produced by Corgi.
