1966 Kreidler 49cc Florett Racing Motorcycle
Registration no. not registered
Frame no. 88027
Engine no. 5120617
The German Kreidler concern were at the forefront of 50cc racing from the moment the class was elevated to World Championship status in 1962. The factory's early efforts used engines based on that of the successful Florett roadster. Introduced in 1957, the Florett was a proper small motorcycle, not a moped, though the twist-grip gearchange and open pressed-steel frame might have suggested otherwise. Regularly updated - later versions came with spine frames, telescopic forks, disc brakes and five-speed gearboxes - the Florett remained a fixture of the Kreidler range right up until the factory's closure in 1982.
This 'racerised' Florett was last run approximately 20 years ago and is described by the vendor as in very good condition. The machine is offered with a Classic Racing Motorcycle Club Machine Registration Certificate and will require careful re-commissioning before returning to the racetrack.
