Harley WLA Lend-Lease

During World War II 38103 Harley WLA motorcycles were supplied to Allied countries by virtue of the “Lend-Lease Act”. It is estimated that 26670 of them were delivered to USSR. Although Harley WLA engine is too weak for such an effort, Soviet Army equipped most of them with M72 sidecars armed with heavy machine guns or mortars.
