It's going to be a while before this one sees any love, but I couldn't pass the opportunity. My best mate and I are organising to go into business together reinventing old furniture, accessories and motorbikes. This will be the first bike we build under our business name, SUUS. When I saw this for sale I couldn't say no. I had no idea that Zundapp even built motorbikes, but fell for the frame immediately. Whilst some things like the seat pan are rotted through the frame itself is very solid and rust free. It'll be a few months before we start on it, but how do people feel about a modern engine and wheels with otherwise original styling?

I stand corrected! Thanks heaps Wrighty, I've been hunting all over and hadn't come across that, it's the same year, probably the smame colour, same headlight, guards, taillight, handlebars, it even has the brackets for the leather bag! THANKS!

No worries mate........glad to be of help. You have the important stuff as in frame and tank. They did acually do a 200 as well, i'm sure they might have used a suzuki lump(100cc & 200cc). Bound to be more 2 stroke suzuki lumps around than finding a Zundapp engine guarded by pixies putting rocking horse sh*t on their garden. Lots of potential....gonna be a cracking build.
