That is fantastic. Though I didn't think the DKW story was too obscure.

I love 2 strokes. I have a Metralla Mk 2 just to keep the connection.

Excellent Bill Dog. Thanks. My first bike was a 1967 2-stroke Kawasaki 250 Scrambler and I'd guess a descendent of that DKW. I sold it to a guy I worked with who crashed it within a week. I have no idea what happened to him (he never came back to work) or the bike.

I'm glad to see him back. I thought he was walking away after the last video that was put up. Thanks Bill for posting this.

My pleasure. It's easily the best written and presented bike based You Tube product out there.

It's laced with cultural references that I often get at the second viewing.
