Valmobile



The Valmobile (Valise-mobile) was designed by Victor Buffort, inspired by the British wartime Welbike. The front end folds up into the rear portion for postability. They were made in France between 1954-55 and in Japan by the Hirano Motorcycle company till 1961. About 100,000 were made.
