make, model & year of motorcyle
trying to find out
Hello, I am trying to find out what make/model/year this motorcycle
would be. These photos were taken in Germany. Any help would be appreciated,
thank you,
Detroit, MI. U.S.A.
The bike is possibly a German MA or Mars machine,
but I can find no match, or it may possibly be an Italian MAS. I have a
listing for a German MAS, but no information as yet.

Triumph L150?
German built Triumph L150?
A friend of mine from Cincinatti has an old motorcycle (in boxes) he
brought back from Germany some 15 years ago. He says the bike is
a Triumph L150, from 1957, but the manual is printed in German. Is
this a TWN model? Have not found much on the web for L150's.
Any thoughts on this would be appreciated. He would like to restore
it at some time in the future. Thank you for your time.

I'm sorry, I have no record of an FDK motorcycle.
Have you any other information which may help identify the machine?
Thanks so much for your quick reply! .. I just talked to my father-in-law
again, and he says that he actually had 7 motorcycles when he lived in
Germany!! These are the ones that he could remember off the
top of his head...
1. 'FN'...1932 500 c.c. He thinks this was built in
Belgium
2. Opel...1926 500 c.c.
3. NSU 1937 200 c.c. ..(German?)
4. Triumph ..single cylinder..250..or 200 c.c.
5. DKW (late 30's) 100 c.c. German...
If you could locate a picture of any of these, that would be much appreciated.

I don't like new shiny paint on my bike. Healthy engine & tranny,
good wheels ( & brakes) and strong frame is the most important thing
to maintenance, in order to keep the bike runs well daily. Any parts on
my bike has it original paint and list, except for the rims. Even if I
need to paint my bike, I would rather to use brush than spray gun.
My brother has just finished my other bike. I use more than 5 brands
of bikes ( with different year ) to become 1 complete bike. It's not only
because not too easy to find British classic bike parts in Indonesia but
also I like to be different. He sent me her picture ( attached ) couples
weeks ago. And he said the bike is running well right now.
...
I'm sorry for late reply. It's my pleasure to inform you about my bike.
She has :
* 1949 Norton front rim and brake shoe
* 1938 Norton fork
* 1941 Harley WLA wheels
* 1953 Ariel front and rear mudguard
* Norton lamp
* 1941 WLA bar & gas grip
* Douglas gas tank ( I think,,, )
* 1953 Ariel NH frame & oil tank
* 1938 BSA Z24 crankcase
* 1956 BSA cylinder and cyl head
* Keihin carb ( hard to find good Amal here )
* Home made exhaust
* 1956 BSA gearbox
* WLA seat
* Indian rear stand
Please correct me if you find something wrong between list above and
the picture. Thank you.

The bike appears to be an OHC twinport with possibly
girder forks and ridid rear end, probably German, early post war. It's
a little like some Bianchis, but the tank logo does not match. It's certainly
not a Puch, and does not appear to be a Victoria or an NSU. Ed.

BSA
I have serial numbers from the frame and engine. What do I have? Engine
# B1608-B
Frame # B1608
Chicago
I don't pretend to be an expert, but I've seen
an awful lot of motorcycles and I've never seen anything like this one.
Is there a BSA logo on the castings anywhere? What makes you believe it
is a BSA? Anything else on it which may help identify it?
Several oddities which no doubt others have commented
on - the gearbox appears to be mounted back to front, putting the kickstart
& gearchange on the left side. The engine is all alloy, rare on an
early postwar model and indicating that it may be a competition model.
The pushrod tubes are mounted fore & aft. The rockerboxes are most
unusual.
There are no tags or logos on the engine, trans, or frame whatsoever.
I do not even know if it is a BSA. I thought that the "plunger" type of
frame(shocks above and below the rear wheel) looked like a BSA. I do think
it is English. It has a seat on it that has the word "Denfeld", one of
the pegs has "Bates" on it, and the top of the carburetor has "AMAL" on
it and says it was made in England. The shape of the engine looks like
a BSA. Other than that I don't have a clue to what it is. If it is not
a BSA do you have any ideas on what it may be? Also do you think it is
pre-war? If you need more pictures let me know and I'll take some more.
Thanks,
John
The Denfeld seat may be a clue - this is a German
brand, rarely fitted to British machines. If the seat appears to be correct
for the frame, then it seems possible the bike is Continental, and most
likely of the early postwar era. Is there a brand on the magneto or sparkplugs?
Good news,
My friend took the cap off the primary and low and behold on the inside
of the cap it says "BSA 65-3364". I've looked the ignition over and it
has no markings. The spark plugs are "Allstate 60210". The seat looks like
it was adapted to fit as do the bicycle handle bars and the fuel tank.
I do hope that number helps with identifying this machine.
Thanks again,
John

I don't know for sure where it was built, I think it was Germany. It
was my first motorcycle, It had a Sach engine, it was a 3 speed shift on

or if it was a brand, it looked similar to some of the Zundapp bikes

It sounds like it may be the model, rather than the marque,
John. The
handlebar shift makes me wonder if it was perhaps a scooter. No photos,
I suppose?

I thank you for your time and info but it was not a scooter it was
a motorcycle, when you rode it you had to stradle the gas tank. I don't
know if it helps but the ignition key was on the top of the headlight,
it was red with a white seat and chrome sides on the gas tank.

Hi everyone,
please can someone help me identify this bike i have just bought,on
the tank there is a decal showing a fox or wolfs head,its hand change,
side valve, & on left crankcase it says- modele depose No 74,
anyone know what it is, or what year of make.
thankyou
belfast, N, Ireland
.....................
Thankyou for replying to me & my question about my bike, i had it
running at the weekend all seems ok, its very solidly made & of very
good quality workmanship, its still on its original french number plates,
in fact the whole bike is very original, even the silencer still has its
fish tail end.
My main collection of bikes are 1939- 45 ex war dept, british &
american, i bought this unknown bike off a friend of mine who had it in
his garage for years, he never did anything to it, but at the time would
not sell it, my first interest in it was that i thought it my be ex war
dept, & i think he sold it to me for that reason,
When i got it home & cleaned it, i soon realised it is much earlier
than that, i think its 1930s , where ever its been kept in the past in
france, someone has really looked after it, if it wasnt for the tyres &
control cables, you could have started it & rode off on it, overall
condition is very good, only slight surface rust in small places, very
slight at that, i will get some photos as soon as possible, & send
them to you,
thankyou again for all your help
Robbo .
..any ideas where i might get a dynamo for it.
..........
thankyou for your help so far, im sorry to give you all this trouble
with this bike, the logo is on both tank sides & frame headstock, it
is a lion or wolf, in a gold & green square,the frame down tube also
has a gold & green band around it, there is nothing at all on tank
rubbers, the foot peg rubbers have a logo on them, & so does the magneto
on a brass plate, the headlamp has a large F in a blue circle, i am not
at home at the moment, this computer is in the library, when i get home
i will look straight away, the bike is much cleaner now, i have removed
the rear rack & fitted the lifting handle that came with the bike,
also fitted new tyres, i went out on it yesterday for a quick run, the
library doesnt open again untill next tuesday, so i will reply then,
thanks again robbo
.......
I managed to get on a computer to send you these details on the bike,
on the footrest rubbers it says (remember)
the headlamp glass has a large M in the middle of a blue shield, saying
(marchal)
Engine No is -142116
Magneto says on a brass plate -Morel -La sone, isere, type G1
rear light has brass plate on side saying, ( Luminor )-depose,
control levers, throttle, air, mag, ect, have Saker-Levalois on them,
on the tank & frame head stock, it is a lion or wolfs head in gold
& black
with a light green back ground, with a black frame around it,
thanks again for your help

Here's what we have so far:
Logo depicts a lion or wolf's head in gold &

When I got it, it had one of the early Harley-Davidson carbs on it Which
some other fellow just had to have. Now I have purchased A four ball something

Well, I hope you can give me a hint. No writing other than a serial

Mystery bike Utah
The engine in this bike is a 125cc Villiers type 9D. Current from the
mid 30's through to 1948. It was used in a great number of different makes
but given the colour,the general style and shape of the inlet manifold
and its location I'd say it is a James ML. The ML stands for Military Lightweight
but the majority of ML's were made just after WWII and sold into the US.
Quite a few have survived and they have an active fan base. The headlight
is not original and I suspect the tank is a ring in also. Cheers, Bob
Australia
................
Had a closer look.The engine info is right but it isn't a James as
the james had the engine unit mounted at an angle with the rear higher
than the front so the cylinder sloped forwards. Definitely British, definitely
Villiers powered. Cheers, Bob

Old Bike Mystery
I am not a motorcyclist but I enjoy visiting this website to see pictures
of old bikes and read about them.
Another site that I like to visit, www.vintagebike.co.uk, is showing
a very appealing photo of an early motorcycle and sidecar with a request
for identification. See Unknown-Outfit.htm.
I have no connection with that site but decided to try and identify the
bike.
I noticed that it had an Isle of Wight registration but I understand
that the early IOW registration records have been destroyed.
I was wondering if anyone on www.cybermotorcycle.com could help with
identification? I've trawled through the amazing collection of photos
and info on here but can't make the connection I'm looking for.
Thanks and regards,
David Withers.
Cambs., England
----------------
The nearest make I could find was Bradbury or Rover, but I couldn't
find enough similarities to nail it to one or the other.
As I mentioned, I am not a motorcyclist - in fact I haven't been since
I was about 21, over 40 years ago, and then I only had small bikes and
scooters, namely: a 125 Bantam, 125 Royal Enfield, 125Li Lambretta and,
finally, a Prior Viscount scooter. I'll outline these in case of
any interest but please feel free to skip the rest of this e-mail if you
so wish!
The Enfield had a hand gear change and three gears, except 2nd on mine
was broken so I had to rev the engine in 1st and then chug in 3rd!
I was told that it was produced for the military, for dropping from aircraft.
It 'disappeared' when I left it with a bike shop for the magneto to be
repaired.
The Prior Viscount had the Messerschmidt bubble car engine with the
reverse-running points taken out. It seemed very fast after the little
Lambretta but was only 10 bhp! I used to ride 30 miles along country
roads from my home to help construct the Santa Pod Raceway each weekend
(about 1963). The trip took 1.1/2 hours on the Lambretta but
only 3/4 hour on the Prior!
The Prior had the rear wheel deliberately offset from the front, which
my local MoT man would not accept without argument. It had twin fuel
tanks which frequently cracked and the chain was easily stretched, however
I loved it. I believe it started off as a TWN Contessa with an engine
having two pistons on a common rod, but they got into difficulties and
a German firm by the name of Hercules took over the frames and fitted the
Messerschmidt engine. That engine had a drain plug the bottom so
the engine had to sit high in the frame and the seat had a recess in it
to accept the spark plug! The English pedal cycle firm of Hercules complained
about the German company using the name so it was changed to Prior for
the UK. All to the best of my fading memory.
I'm interested in all things mechanical, especially where there is a
historical connection, which is why I enjoy visiting your wonderful website.
I don't have the aptitude for producing my own website but I do try to
do my bit in a different way, i.e. my main interest these days is steam
railways and I contribute to the website of the Nene Valley Railway where
I am leading the 'heavy general overhaul' of a lovely Danish loco (http://www.nvr.org.uk/groups/mechanical/656.htm).
I spend two or three days every week on the overhaul, plus roughly another
day a week in research, preparing component drawings, etc.
End of textbook!
Regards,
David.
... I'm having second thoughts about the engine size on the Prior Viscount.
I'm now thinking it was 175cc, not 200cc.
