Motocykle i motorowerów - NRD: książki - historia i modele

Das große DDR Motorrad Buch

NOWOŚĆ

W NRD na nowego Trabanta trzeba było czekać często ponad dziesięć lat, dlatego wielu obywateli wybierało motocykle i motorowery. Choć i one nie zawsze były łatwo dostępne, można je było zdobyć szybciej niż samochód.
Przez dziesięciolecia ulice wypełniały Simson Schwalbe, MZ "Emme" i AWO 425. Ten ostatni model uchodził za wyjątkowo mocny, a kierowcy wyścigowi i terenowi stawali się prawdziwymi bohaterami narodowymi.

W bogato ilustrowanej książce Frank Rönicke przedstawia pełną historię motocykli w NRD. Opisuje wszystkie najważniejsze marki i modele - od MZ, IWL i Simson po Zschopau i DKW. To wyjątkowe opracowanie ukazuje rozwój techniki, codzienne użytkowanie i pasję, które towarzyszyły motocyklizmowi w Niemczech Wschodnich.

Szczegóły

Typenatlas der DDR-Motorräder und Mopeds

The GDR was a motorcycle country! This illustrated book shows the diversity of its two-wheeled production, from the legendary "Dampfhammer" to the unforgettable Schwalbe. Thanks to the low price and short waiting times, almost everyone rode a moped, motorcycle or scooter.

With authentic photos and competent texts, Peter Böhlke presents the full variety of real socialist two-wheeler production: from the AWO 425, to the RT 125 and SR 1, the complete MZ range and the unforgettable "Schwalbe" from the Simson bird series. Entertaining and highly informative.

Motorradland DDR: Motorrad, Moped, Roller - AWO, IWL, EMW, IFA, MZ, Simson, u.a.

For the first time, this book presents not only individual brands or models such as scooters or motorcycles, but all motorized two-wheelers manufactured in the GDR or officially imported there from other countries. From bicycles with auxiliary motors to an unknown small-series production of a 750 cc machine with a 170-degree V-twin four-stroke engine.
Not only are all mass-produced models presented, but also individual, little-known developments, prototypes and background information are revealed.

Chapters on the motorcycle racing of the GDR brands and the motorcycle racing events held there round off the book just as well as a chapter on the sometimes sensational homemade motorcycles of the local motorcycle scene.
An extensive table section with more than 10.000 technical data points is intended to provide restorers with clarity about their model and serve as a reference work. The image and text sections are designed to invite reading and browsing.
For anyone who owns an East German two-wheeler or is simply interested in German motorization history, this book offers a lot.

EMW und AWO - Die Viertaktmodelle der DDR (Schrader Typen Chronik)

In 1928, BMW took over the Eisenach Motorenwerke and also built motorcycles there. After the war, one of them, the R35, continued to be built there as the EMW until 1955.
The AWO 425, the second four-stroke motorcycle produced in the GDR, had been rolling off the production line in Suhl, Thuringia, since 1950, and production ended in 1960. After that, the State Council decided to stop the production of four-stroke motorcycles in the former GDR.

But the exotic four-stroke engines have not been forgotten in the two-stroke country of the GDR, as Frank Rönicke's volume proves with plenty of period color.

DDR-Motorräder - seit 1945 (Typenkompass)

The former GDR did not have a one-size-fits-all range of two-wheelers to offer, but rather an extraordinarily wide range of motorcycles. Motorcycles in all classes, with a wide variety of engines and with very different characters. In short: the motorcycles of the GDR are worth being included in a Typenkompass.

As usual, this volume contains brand and model histories with technical data, facts and pictures. Everything you need to know as a lover of these machines that have already become history. And a lot more besides. Not just for those who have driven them themselves, but also for everyone who would like to drive one: The motorcycles of the GDR.
For each type covered, this Typenkompass book contains a photo, a historical description and technical data.
