Dürkopp History
Factory founded 1867 by Nikolaus Dürkopp, producing motorcycles
before the turn of the century. Motorcycle manufacture ceased between 1912
and 1927. Production of all motorcycles and scooters ended in 1961 as sewing
machines were proving more profitable.
In the 1920's the Dürkopp automobile factory employed over 6000
workers building a range of cars which included models from 1500cc to over
6 litres.
In 1954 Dürkopp built the Diana scooter, a relatively luxurious
unit with electric start and a four-speed gearbox for its 200cc two-stroke
engine. Production of this model ended in 1961.

Durkopp Diana Sport
Attached photo of my Diana in the late 50s.
Had a partial seizure after 200 mile trip, engine distmantled
by M/c expert who said it was the finest 2stroke engine he had ever seen,
and he could not understand why a needle bearing had disintegrated as the
lubrication was fine.
Toured Holland & Belgium in the following 2 weeks and everything
went fine.

1953 OTTO 150cc
My friend has purchased a 1953 150cc Durkopp and would like to see
if a wiring diagram is available, as it currently is stripped of all wiring.
Does any one know if this is available somewhere and if spares are available
in the UK?

HI I own a Dürkopp bike under a Portuguese registration as being
a MD176 model from 1958. The bike is a 2stroke single cylinder 175cc
with 2 exhaust pipes, one on each side. I'm trying to find out as
much as I can about it, things like manufacturer's history, technical designs
(restoration is involved), parts' dealers, market value etc. It looks
like a DKW 175 of 1957 but with an extra exhaust. Any information
welcome. THANKS. -- Paulo Noronha -- psergionoronha
