PL-88-13 télescopique, leviers droits, Steib TR 500 et 1955 d'où: R51/3 ou R 67/2

License PL-xx-xx dates from 1953/54... By the high number it'll rather be 1954.

Le cap de l'espérance

Deux autres photos : Elles ne me disent pas grand' chose, hormis le flat twin. Bon, allez, quoi En 50-51, sont-ce des CMT ou des CEMEC qu'ils chevauchent, les flics de la route ?

Eh bien, d'après http://www.motards-de-la-gendarmerie.info/marques.htm ce sont des BMW R50 ou R51/3.

R51/3 On peut voir plusieurs motos BMW de la police(ou gendarmerie ?), dans ce film . 1ère des deux images remplacées du film. Deux de ces BMW jouent un rôle important. sur le "thumb" c'est une R50 qui gît ! Ah, zut. Ou plutôt, bon. Il lui faut sa page. On voit ça à quoi, que c'est une R50 ? Et en photo principale ? C'est toujours une R 51/3 ?

R50? '51- R51/3

I just see, that it was set in Dortmund. It seems, that the building is indeed the Polizeipräsidium, the police headquarter - 200 m to the left is my office.

Assuming it's running in the 500cc class, this will be based on an R51/3.

This is the scene corresponding to /vehicle_34900-Matchless.html, but as they adapted all series contents they also used another bikes I guess I do not understand what the girl says as bike name/model, but I guess that it will quickly be identified... BMW R60? I'm sure Jun will know. . .

R51/3 or R67/3...but cylinder seems shorter than R67/3... I bet it's BMW R51/3 (1951-54) Full width front brake drum suggest it's 1954, but this BMW had repainted or restored. I'll leave it as (1951-54)
