Just curious - new or used?

 

Military surplus from a private dealer or from a gov't outlet?

 

Looks like a fun machne!

Apparently Harley-Davidson dealers were given the opportunity to buy them before the end of the contract run.

The one I have was a raffle that the winner put up for sale. It now has 200 miles

 

The Armstrong MT500 is a British military motorcycle made by Armstrong-CCM Motorcycles in Bolton, Greater Manchester, who acquired the rights to the Rotax engine enduro motorcycle SWM XN Tornado from the Italian owners and developed the MT500 for use by the British Army in the Falklands war.[1] Electric start models were built for the Canadian and Jordanian armed forces.[2]

 

In 1987, the design and production rights were sold to Harley-Davidson,
