Most RAF men on a bike photos seem to be A/C Shaw

The tank has a flat top, which is not typical Brough, though the engine looks like a JAP from the late model 11.50.
I am no expert just bored and searching!!

There is a crown on the badge, the RAC has or had a crown but always seems to have had "RAC" in large letters.
There is badge on his right wrist and seems to be something on his left chest.
Who would allow a striped shirt when in uniform?

The bike looks like a 680cc JAP engined Zenith of the mid nineteen-twenties,the bike was first registered in Guildford, Surrey,...The ZENITH factory was near Brookland in Surrey,perhaps a connection ?
