Hey all-- found a baggie labeled "attack bike"-- and sure enough, it seems to be a SM attack bike! No instructions, though...

Can anyone help me identify what these extra bits are for?



Thanks!

Left to right;

Bolt Gun, then the two bolters off the front of a SM bike,
Then the wheel nut for the side car (two of when only 1 is needed), then metal pieces that come with Chaplain on Bike, the missing one is a book? with helmet and stuff chained to it, a holstered bolter, and a smoke/grenade launcher.

Ah-ha! Ok, the two bolters for the bike make sense! Thanks. The side car came with a metal nut/hubcap for the side car-- there are much smaller.

How do I use the extra bolter? The arms that I have are clearly designed for the handle bars; they don't hold the gun correctly.

No book, but I do have a box/bedroll combo... not quite sure what a SM does with a bedroll, lol...

You can probably just toss the extras into your bits bin and use them on a conversion or diorama. It may have been for the sidecar, but it's also an old-style bolter so it could've been tossed in for extras.

iirc, those old style bolters used to come on a frame of 3 bolters, 3 knives and 3 pairs of shoulder pads. Always got extras over what you needed too it seemed.
There was another frame of arms to hold them in various positions.

And I had forgot about the bedrool/box thingy the metal pieces with the chaplain biker were a similar set with a different bit of stowage.

I've got loads of those little wheel nut things in my bits box never got used lol.
I throw em onto bases sometimes buried in the mud or something.... lots of my bits box ends up as basing materials being chopped up into smaller pieces

Awesome, thanks everyone.
