Cobra,
What a great collection of photos. Thanks a lot for sharing with us.
I hope this thread doesn't go unnoticed. The vintage guys should really
enjoy it.

Tom

Back during WW1 the Russians were allies with the Allied (Allante') Powers and were using Allied motorcycles because they were inexpensive or almost free and the most reliable at that time. I think Prussia had their own bikes but they were not up to the task at hand.
