german dkw?
« on: March 16, 2009, 12:47:27 PM »
Hi everybody!
Could you help me to identify the bike one the picture?
Is it german DKW? What model?
There is no plate on the frame.The owner can't find any frame numbers. Many parts are signed by AUTO UNION (AUDI).
Engine's number is 122063-0.
Thanks in advance!
Regards!

Hello as far as I can recall in my books it is a nz 500 from around 1935/6 but several things are altered  like the frontfork which was a girderlike type in those days.
And it started its life definetly as a black bike
Ít will be a hell of a job to make it original again good luck with it.
look at www.dkwclub.nl and maybe you will find something.
