Thank G*d there are still some real men on this planet! ;D

I suspect  that this custom is powered by a 70's vintage Sachs 340 single as used in snowmobiles and the Rokon line of motocrossers and enduros. Thanks! ;)

That reminds me of mad max. Classic old road racers. That there is a beauty. I saw an old AJS road racer a few days ago, didn't get a photo though it was on the road

Holy Sheep! A Rokon Ranger Roadracer? :o It would indeed take a real man to harness the power. ;D

Sachs, did I see somewhere that you're interested in Sachs/DKW parts and bikes? How about this?







"For sale 10 Sachs / DKW motorcycles, with about 12 extra engines, extra frames , wheels , brackets , ect. These are 1970's 100cc and 125 cc MX and enduro models. They have been out of production since the late 1970's. It also comes with a NOS ( New Old Stock ) parts inventory with mostly engine parts. Pistons , rings , gears , nuts bolts , ect. Everything I have Sachs / DKW goes in this sale."

They are in very good condition. a Preston Petty coffin style Maico CZ Aluminum gas tank . 1 400cc Wiseco 0.40 NOS Piston kit, with about 5 sets of rings, 4 sets fork boots ( 2 Rocky Cycle parts 1 set Daystar and 1 unknown set ) , 2 sets fork seals, 2 aluminum shift levers, 1 Impact GSL73-1 gear shift lever, 2 wheelsmith air box rings, and misc other parts.

How much does he want for the Sachs/DKW stuff?
Any Zundapps mixed in there?

"Available are 2 175cc CZ / Jawa motorcycles, model 477. They are mostly complete, and you should be able to make 1 with some extra parts to trade or sell off. May consider trade for rifle - handgun, 4 wheel drive parts or $350."
 
Guys prices are pretty good, if I had more space to put stuff I'd be getting all kinds of stuff. No Zundapp stuff yet but you never know.

Hey Riffraff, do you have a contact number and address for the bike wrecker guy? I buy vintage stuff once or twice a year and stick to a budget (I'm buying a 1975 Hercules GS175 6A - really rare bike - as we speak) but if the guy still has the stuff a few months down the road I might be (very) interested. ;D
