Title: Any Ideas ?
Post by: Joep on July 23, 2010, 08:28:54 PM

Hi there,

on vacation I came across this one, but no idea what it could be. The people said it was a Royal Enfield, but dont think so judging by the shape of the front fork. Browsing the site (pictures of manudacturers) I would guess something like DKW, Carlton or ?
the engine looks like a small one round 100CC or even less

Just curious to find out what this one could be ? Any ideas ?

Cheers
Joep

That engine is certainly not English with the kickstart on the left hand side and those forks certainly aren't English either. I suspect DKW.
Cheers,

Think you are right, been doing some searching with DKW and came up with this one : DKW RT125 from 1940
Seems to be the one
