My motorcycles history?
Posted: Tue Oct 12, 2010 7:18 am
Well, I am wondering if it is possible to find my motorcycles history?
I am the owner of a 1940 Ardie VF125 frame with intact frame number - but I have no actual history on it; No licenseplates and other.
I was wondering if there is a place where I can find some history for it? "Who" used it, for how long has it been used, where has it been used, documentation etc...
My theori is that it is a Gestapo bike - maybe used for escorte driving. The bike may later have been taken by the Danish resistance and repainted red and white (brush-painted).
The bike is right now red and white - but under the type plate with frame-no (match the frame no in the bike), model, year, etc, there is a mlitarygreen colour (Feldgrau?).
Is there anyone who can confirm that Ardie VF125 has been used in Denmark due to German military service (I've seen one more apart from mine) - or is there anyone who know where I can search out the frame-no to find the license-plate - and/or other history of the Zwerirädder?
