You need to take a photo of this picture with a digital camera. When I clicked the photo it did not increase in size like other pictures here. And I do not want it sent to me as i just got rid of a virus.
Hi penguins, I did expand the picture to highlight the emblem and this is as large as my mac pro i photo program would make the picture. I can isolate and expand other parts of the bike let me know what sections would help if they were expanded and i will post them.
Hey it looks to be a Franco Morini motor so I would guess, If built before 58 it's a T125 2 stroke or if it was built in 58 it could be a Morini Franco Motori spa which would be a 250cc. It's hard to see in the picture?? Hawk
It's a German built Dürkopp motorcycle. Most likely a Dürkopp MD 200 or MD 150.
