Yes, as a method of moving reserve forces around they'd be pretty good, but dangerous at the front itself. Not as fast as vehicles (obviously) but certainly quicker and less fatiguing that marching.

My thoughts are that any bikes made from around mid 97 onwards are likely to be of the cruiser type. Simple, all round machines that can work on most terrain, although not optimised for any.
Prewar machines would still be in use of course when and where available.
