Shooting at a jet with a pistol, but might it be a Henderson?

Note the crossbar of the handlebars and the molding of the fork.

EDIT: Representatives of the USSR did buy two used Hendersons for upping the industry in young Soviet Russia, but that was in 1928/29:

Thor and Sears also used a fork shape like that, but both without the lock in the middle which speaks for the Henderson.

There's a wonderful but sadly very fuzzy closeup of the engine blowing at 17:14 where one can see a sort of arrow pointing up which would further match part of what appears to be a removed Henderson logo:

There is a lot of text on the arrow. Excelsior, which bought Henderson in 1917, used a similar X logo, but only with _____ COMPANY on the bottom aperture. Henderson has three rows of text like in my link which in full should say "[Made by] Excelsior Motor Mfg and Supply Co., Chicago USA" The earliest evidence for Henderson using this logo is from May 1918:
