Excellent War Pic with one huge flaw

Rating: Null/10 (15 December 2000)

The Motorbike Steve McQueen uses to try and jump the wall is a 1948 Triumph Speed Twin. How it got to a German POW camp in 1944 mystifies me. McQueen a Motot bike enthusiast would have known this. I wonder what the story behind the use of the bike is, anyone out there know?? Apart from this flaw it's a great movie!!
