munich motor museum
a few pictures tell the story better than i could :wink:
enjoy! i went there last year with my lovely girlfriend on our tour of western europe. the bikes from kuwait on the main square were odd. i guess they flew them over. lots of fairly wealthy arabs on the streets in munich. 8)

SpudRider, how far are you from Bonneville Salt Flats? that s a place ordinary earthlings only read about! one day i ll have to go to utah, and see those mythological places! the messerschmitt was used on the speed track, the 200cc remind one of a well tuned zong :-)
Krasi_BG, that s a 300cc rotary engine serial production bike. more info here, but it s in germerman: http://www.der-wankelmotor.de/Motora.../hercules.html
