I found the following Kodachrome image in "WWII American War Eagles 1937-1942" by Warren M. Bodie, page 143. He suggests that the 3-wheeler "fire engine" motorcycle was probably pretty rare. He also points out that the aircraft in the background is pretty rare to be found in Kodachrome color. It is a Vought SBU-1 or -2. Photo credit is "USN via R. Starinchak". Over to you ground support folks for more info on the motorcycle. Enjoy.
