Let us have a look at some long forgotten and well-remembered favorites together: The “Zweirad Union” in Nuremberg hosted various different brands until the late 1950s in Germany: Express, Victoria and DKW had a firm spot in the motorcycle market. Another, well-recognized German motorcycle manufacturer, Horex, gained popularity when their model Regina advanced to be the best-selling 350cc motorcycle on the market.
Other famous Horex models included the 500cc Horex Imperator, the “Münch-Spezial” – designed by former Horex design engineer Friedel Münch – and the legendary Mammut. Another German legend, the Zündapp KS 601-bike-trailer-combination “Green Elephant” still attracts great numbers of enthusiasts from all over Europe to the annual “Elephant meeting” each year. The market leaders in the classic and contemporary motorcycle markets are clearly Harley Davidson, BMW and various Italian brands who have kept up their traditions since the early 20th century. Everyone knows – and many people love - the powerful potato-potato sound coming from a Harley’s exhaust. The Harley’s unique sound enthuses admirers everywhere and from multiple generations and spreads the virus Flathead, Panhead, Sportster & Co. globally. As a former competitor against Norton, BSA and Triumph, Harley Davidson has today become a famous brand that suggests freedom – like an eagle – adventure and long-standing tradition.
Across the pond, to BMW – the German uber-classic For BMW enthusiasts worldwide, Boxer or Rubber cow are not alien concepts but closely associated with the most famous and tradition-rich German manufacturer of motorcycles. As early as 1923, BMW produced the R23 that was well ahead of its time with its boxer motor and cardan shaft drive. In the past as well as the present, BMW motorcycles can be seen on racecourses all around the world. Solidity and reliability is what BMW represents, even with its classic models such as the old R-Series that still frequently participates in classic races, rallies or veteran races. And the BMW company also counts on service, so that motorbike owners can find detailed information on their treasure at any time through the company’s databases. The 1950s and 60s were the golden motorcycle years, which gave today’s classic motorcycles their unmistakable prestige and fame. Movies and TV productions frequently featured historic motorbikes such as the Triumph Thunderbird in “The Wild One” and made it an overnight legend.
Serial production of the Triumph Bonneville – also called “Bonnie” – commenced after the world-record setting race of 1955 at Lake Bonneville, Utah, setting benchmarks and making the decade a time of industrial competition. Norton, another English traditional motorcycle manufacturer, prides itself with over 40 victories at the famous “Isle of Man” road race, competing in the 350cc and 500cc classes. MV Agusta, Ducati and Moto Guzzi, to name but a few Italian manufacturers with huge racing successes, even until today. Especially Moto Guzzi was able to make itself a name with its racing successes as the “Italian Eagle”, winning the 1924 European Championship in the 500cc class. The legendary Falcone, V7 Speciale and 850 GT followed suit. Although they surely were not the first ones to produce powerful motorbikes, the Japanese came in late, but with full force. They hit the market so hard that today’s motorcycle scene cannot live without them. When the Yen deteriorated, Japan’s first own, inexpensive motorcycles started to appear, introducing the Rikuo in 1934.
This was only the beginning and quickly, European standards were used as role models for the Japanese motorbike production. A reputation of being copies of BSA, Victoria, Indian, BMW and DKW, the Japanese classic motorcycles by Meguro, lilac, Baton, Marusho and Yamaha started to appear. It was not before long – namely the late 1960s and early 70s – that the Japanese “rice bowls” started to hit the European market and soon became serious racing competitors for the more traditional brands. Some of the most famous Japanese bike are the Yamaha XT 500, Honda CB 750 Four, Kawasaki Z1 and the Suzuki GS 750. Café Racers, the misfits amongst the motorcycles. The wild and revolutionary 1960s brought about a new breed of motorized bicycles: being different was cool and therefore, very little of the original serial motorcycle remained, making it a unique accessory for everyone who wanted to be hip and original. The handlebars were lowered, exhaust systems opened and the seat and footrests repositioned to give the driver a racing position.
