World’s oldest motorcycle: Direct drive, no clutch state-of-the-art tech from 1894
Exceedingly rare
Opinion differs with regard to how many machines were produced, figures ranging from as low as 800 to as high as 2,000 being quoted. Survivors are, needless to say, exceedingly rare though there are examples in some important collections like the Deutsches Zweirad-Museum in Neckarsulm, Germany. (Source: Bonhams)
