Gentlemen

What is this, size, year built. Not online during weekend, så anyone who can answer this in an hour is the lucky one.

[Admin Jaap]

Sachs engine, so probably European

[grossohc]

puch 50

[Baldini]

Looks like a CZ or Jawa or even a bit MZ like in spine frame...I have no idea - why are all these quiz questions small ugly2 strokes? not that i'd get any points if they were anything else....but they're just so dull...

[Admin Jaap]

Not Eastern european. I can't imagine that Warsaw pact manufacturers were allowed to use Western German (Sachs) engines

[badmotogoozer]

Bernardi. Early fifties? 175cc? Sachs or NSU..???

Zündapp? Looks like one of the models from the Seventies.

OK, guys. No correct answers so far. Next clue: The Sachs connection is correct and the assumption that it is not Eastern European is also correct. The brand is dead now, folded in the seventies. Tikkanen, you should crack this.

 

EDIT: by the way, Baldini. its about ugly two strokes because everyone knows the gorgeous four strokes

[mdude]

Well. This is slow..... New hint: What part of Europe do I ride in.......

[callison]

Hercules?

[Admin Jaap]

I can't find any Scandinavian bikes... Only Monark from Sweden and Nimbus from Denmark

[Martin Barrett]

Tempo from Norway

 

It's not a 1954 150 standard

good boy, just subtle hints needed.

 

The model isnt quite right though, but nearly impossible to tell apart from each other. Its a Norwegian (yes, really) Tempo 210 from around 1969, difficult to say exactly.

Tempo built a large range of models in Norway from 1931 to (I guess) 1975.

Engines from 50 (mopeds/scooters) up to 210 ccm. Rock solid bikes which the norwegian military also used for many years as patrol vehicles in temperatures below -20C. Popular on the countryside for tuning and hotrodding.

Heres some pics.

 

I say Mr Barrett has earned half a point??

[Martin Barrett]

I was getting the clues mixed up with this one

 

 

I was going to go for a Bofors Deuterium Oxide (Heavy Water) powered Rollmop maker.

 

But Bofors is Swedish and Rollmops are Scottish

 

At least the Heavy Water Has a Norwegian connection. - education by

 

I suppose that's my half quiz point gone

 

Today the weather on planet Martin is

[Admin Jaap]

We're not going to do half points! Either you are completely right or you are completely wrong.

Sorry Martin, you didn't give a completely right answer, so you're completely wrong!

 

ergo: no point! But our Norwegian quizmaster does get one because noone got the right answer.
