On a different topic. I`d like to get your opinion since I was trying for some time to form my own on this subject. I guess it depends alot on the scale of the scenario (if units represent brigades and divisions or companies and battalions), but still, do you think it`s ok to have the motorcyclists in the infantry class (being able to dismount)?
in fact it is a very complex issue
armies of different countries used them in different ways

I was thinking that in reality these guys were actually small reconnaissance and liaison units that were not meant to dig in and hold a city against tanks, like regular infantry do. Also, unless you know better, they would not have heavy weapons (artillery, at or aa guns) so they could dismount easily and hence there`s not really a need for a switch button.
it is more typical for the Wehrmacht
in the Red Army were motorcycle regiments, which were included in the tank corps.
These regiments were serious combat unit. These regiments consisted of light tanks, armored cars and other various parts of the gain (as gas-67 with MG or rocket launcher).

Plus, their rapid movement is better reflected in the recon class where they can move more than once. Basically I think they get too much of a bonus as an infantry and that the recon class would be more suitable for them. Your thoughts?
But of course you are right in what they perform scouting function, primarily. So the recon class would be more suitable for them.
But I just significantly increased the price of hiring, and made both options
