Re: INDIAN DESPATCH RIDERS.

These are India Contract machines, as indicated by the combined grab handle front mudguard stay so these bikes must have come with them from India.

Rather than DRs', I've seen them captioned as Indian Army provost and they certainly look smart enough.

Presumably light infantry, judging by the cap badge ?

Re: INDIAN DESPATCH RIDERS.

The bloke in the second picture sports what looks like an MP armband so that fits more with Provost than DR I would expect.
