Default The "Böhmerland" Motorcycle

In the german FdW internet forum the classic "Böhmerland" motorcycle was mentioned a few days ago.
Certainly one of the strangest designs of that era; these motorcycles are now almost exclusively seen in a few museums.

Two links:
Böhmerland: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Böhmerland
Böhmerland": Kultmotorräder aus Tschechien: https://www.mdr.de/heute-im-osten/ga...%20stattfinden

Are these motorcycles known outside of Europe? Are there any examples overseas? That would be my question?
(Allegedly, up to 5 people could ride on this motorcycle, and the German Wehrmacht is said to have used these machines before 1945..?)

Mike
