Jan, there's no front wheel damage - I'm guessing the lads were out playing silly buggers off-road, and the rider of this one took a jump with a little too much enthusiasm, which broke the steering head. Likewise that Matchless, and it looks like the rider's knees tried to get off through the gas tank.

I've never broken a steering head, but I HAVE buggered a set of forks doing something similar (never mind even more entertaining dismounts OVER the handlebars - at speed)...
