Default Brass Motorcycle Arm Badge

Has come with a lot of mixed British medals and badges, mainly WWII, including a BEF cloth sign and a 4th Commando arc title. It's a brass motorcycle arm badge, possibly a trade badge? Could it be British Army? Thank you in advance for you advise, gents!

Hi,

Well it certainly looks to depict an early bike, around WWI I would say. Very crudely made thought, so I would be surprised if it was official. A nice piece though, thanks for sharing.

Cheerio,

Roy
