There's a really nice one among the Great War Miniatures packs, but again, it's pricey.  Otherwise, good friggin' luck.

You should probably search for plastic model kits, although there are likely some motorcyles in various lines of WW2 vehicles and figures.

Company B makes a very nice Japanese motorcycle including some with side cars on the left.  Just do a head conversion to add a British Helmet.

Go to Japanese section.

Here is my version

I am interested in land warfare throughout history and beyond, except the Seven Years War, in Europe.

It'd sure be keen to get a Brough Superior, or even an old BSA or such in 28mm.

Oh shoot, I thought someone had linked 1st corps already in this thread, otherwise I'd have done so already.

There was a guy on here who was building one from scratch. If you can wait a wee bit I believe Fenris Games are in the process of getting it cast.

Those 1st Corps ones are rather special. The Foundry pack is quite nice and I don't think pricey myself.

I've trawling for printer friendly pulp-ish motorcycle cad-files for a while now, no luck so far.
