Rokon Motorcycle
I recently bought Clive Law's book, "The Canadian Military Motorcycle". It is a great reference work & well done. Well worth the investment.
On page 191 there is a picture & brief statement " In 1969 the Canadian Forces tested a Rokon Trailblaxer but there was little interest at the time in any new motorcycles." Has anyone any information on who tested the Rokon or any other reference to the consideration of the machine? This is of particular interest since I have the Chrysler RAM tested by the LETE branch in 1969 & I do have a 1969 Rokon. The connection would make an interesting display. Below is a link to a picture of a similar Rokon Trailbreaker; https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/i...ve8BV5ZAAVWCkA. |

I believe Mike McKinley here on the forum had or has a Rokon.

I too just picked up a copy of that book and was saddened to see multiple errors in identification of the motorcycles in some of the photos.
