Nice !!! I like a lot the shutter servo actuator... can be the biker tries to brake and takes instead a risky picture ... Where did you find it ? And... is there a way to identify the motorbike ? Seems to me too "light" to be a BMW... maybe a NSU or DKW..

May be ...why not a black III ?

looks there is an OKARO on the range finder window (someting is hiding the foot of the VIOOH).

Do you see that the release cable is connected to the handle bar on the right and an another cable is connected on the left for the focusing lever of the lens. Is there a system for cocking the shutter ?

No that's a Black III maybe, most certianly NOT a IIIC K Grey - note absense of the chrome RF window rings which were on all Grey painted cameras
