This is an Adler MB250 from the mid/late 50's photographed
at the Biggar show in 2007. The bike is a 250cc two stroke twin manufactured in
West Germany between 1949 and 1958. It was the basis for the Ariel
Arrow/Leader and, more importantly, the Yamaha YD1 in 1957 that would
eventually lead to the hooligan two strokes like the RD350 I owned in the mid
70's.

Hello Bernie from the 'Adler to Zundapp Club' just a bit of correction the picture you are showing is a Adler 250 'Favorit' from 1957/58 the MB Adler had plunger rear suspension.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the correction. It's not a marque I know much about.
