DKW NZ 350 from Italy
Posted: Fri Sep 25, 2009 5:07 pm
Dear all DKW fans!
I found in my garage a DKW nz350... You may ask me: “How did you find it??Didn't you see it before??...“
Let me explain.... I have always known that my grandfather had a bike... but I have never thought it was there and it was so old!
Before I was born, the bike went off and also my grandpa had to stop riding because of health problems.
Some days ago I decided to have a look at this misterious bike covered by al lot of towels and bags and...
Ta Daaa...
Sincerely.. at the first moment, I did not even know what model it was...(I'm not expert at all about old motorbikes... ) Then I started to search on web and I found it.
My dad says that this bike is there approximately since 1985 (when my grandpa died...).
I would be glad if you would like to help me...
I think I'm gonna sell it because I can't restore it even though I wish so much...
As you will see, the bike has been re-painted but the biggest problem is that has been painted also the manufacturing year, the frame and the engine number (my dad says his uncle did it ages ago.... what a disaster!!!Grrr!!)
Can you discover the year? And also... I bet there are some not original parts... it's easy to understand it by looking at some details.
What do you think about?Is it totally wrong? And finally..Can you estimate it?
I made a HQ video with all the pics i have taken...
I'm sorry but I couldn't move it..so there are only left and top side pics..
Thanks all folks for attention!
