Hello all!

Re: Symbol on the motorcycle.
It is the symbol for a motorcycle rifle company. See 1941 – 1942 Organizational Symbols.
As you can see, the SS-Division Wiking (motorisiert), had three motorcycle rifle companies, in one in each of the infantry regiments. As there is no other indication besides this one symbol on the sidecar, it is not possible to state which of the three regiments the company belonged to.
Cheers
