1981 Kettler Motocross
99% original Survivor
These bike were sold in Germany 1981 – 82
This thing is a 99 % original survivor.
Only the rear tire isn´t the original one but it comes from the same ages and must be 25 jears old or older (brand: impac).
A friend of mine had this bike when we were ten years of age and although this wasn´t my favourite we had a lot of fun with this bike.
- steel frame and fork
- nylon wheels
- drum brake front , coaster rear
- Altenburger brake lever
- Swallow front tire (original)
- two piece cranks 150mm
It is a real childhood memory and I´m glad to have one.
Unbelievable to get it complete in this perfect condition.
