The principal US motorcycle was a slightly modified version of the civilian Harley Davidson WLA. The modifications were the addition of a submachine gun bracket, a box for submachine gun ammunition and dimmed lights. In addition, special tires were manufactured for desert operations.
The Canadian army used a different version of the same motorcycle, the Harley Davidson WLC.
