C4600540 on the tank

What bike is this? Couldn't find it in O&M
It's on a picture of our Liberation, of the West Riding Division entering Amsterdam.

Hi Hans

Sounds like a Norton 16H from contract C11082.

There's a copyright problem Ramon; first I have to solve that!

I think that I know that photo Hans. With two girls showing a bit of leg on the back ?

It is indeed a WD16H from C11082 as Rob has correctly suggested.

No copyright, so here it is:

The picture was taken by one Mr.J.M.Bakels
It is near the place where I saw that Polar Bear recce team enter Amsterdam on May 7, 1945; unfortunately, I have never yet found myself on one of the hundreds pictures taken then

Hi Hans,

Thanks for the picture. I really like pictures of WW2 WD motorcycles, taken in Holland.
