Motor-Kritik-Testbuch: Reprint der Originale von 1938 und 1939 - 108 Auto- und Motorradtests

In the pre-war period, Motor-Kritik was THE specialist magazine for technically interested car and motorcycle drivers. Until he had to vacate his post during the Nazi era, the editor-in-chief was Josef Ganz, the legendary designer, advocate of light and safe cars and designer of the "Volkswagen" called the May Beetle.
However, Motor-Kritik also continued to provide its readers with extraordinarily thorough car and motorcycle tests.

This has resulted in a unique reference work in which you will find all the technical data, consumption and comparison values, prices and driving reports for the common four- and two-wheelers of the late 1930s.

There are a total of 108 test cards, as well as information about the magazine, about editor-in-chief Ganz and about the car and motorcycle scene of those days.

Deutsche Militärmotorräder - Seit 1905

Although motorcycle construction experienced its first boom at the beginning of the 20th century, motorcycles only slowly began to establish themselves in the military during the First World War.
In the Weimar Republic, the Reichswehr increasingly commissioned motorcycle rifle units on heavy motorcycles. It was not until 1938 that BMW and Zündapp began developing so-called super-heavy motorcycles with low-range gears, reverse gear and sidecar drive. After the war, two-stroke engines were mainly used.

DMAX Kult-Eisen - Unsere Motorräder der 70er, 80er und 90er

At the beginning of the 1970s, it was the Japanese who rediscovered the motorcycle after its decline in the 1950s - this time as a leisure and sports machine.
Only a few German brands, including BMW, were able to profit from this trend and make their own mark. Otherwise, the Japanese dominated the European motorcycle market, especially Honda, the world market leader.

Jungs, Eure 400er - Die 27 PS-Motorräder der 70er und 80er

After mopeds and mokicks came the big two-wheeled world: as an alternative to larger, more expensive machines, many apprentices and students found happiness in the 27 hp class.
The range of products offered by manufacturers was huge. Nevertheless, they all had one thing in common: whether they had 400 cc displacement, maybe 500 cc, or even 250, they never had more than 27 hp.

In this volume, Joachim Kuch, himself a former 400 cc pilot, takes readers on a journey back in time to the 1970s and 1980s. Rich in facts and with many advertising photos and brochures typical of the time, he transports his readers back to the time of flared jeans and colorful Nolan helmets.
