Motorräder des Ostblocks - Bulgarien, Polen, Sowjetunion 1945-1990 (Typenkompass)

It was not only MZ and Simson that drove in the former GDR: in the course of so-called compensation deals, vehicles were repeatedly imported from Eastern Bloc countries.
Since the GDR was given sovereignty over motorcycle construction up to 250 cc by the CMEA states, the CZ and Pannonia, the CZ and Ural were hardly to be found on the road, but all the more so in the countries of origin.

Polskie motocykle 1918-1945

In the interwar period, there were about 20 factories of motorcycles, mopeds and auxiliary motors for bicycles in Poland. In addition to the famous Sokoł, which can be still encountered today, motorcycles of less known brands were also produced.
Nowadays sought after and highly valued by collectors are makes such as MOJ, Perkun, Podkowa, Niemen, Wul-Gum, Lech, Tornedo, SM, and Zuch.

The history of these motorcycles, their manufacturers and people involved in the creation of Polish two-wheelers can be found in this book. Its third edition features 30 new, unique photographs (including Lech, Lot, Wul-Gum-I motorcycles). The whole is a treasury of knowledge about Polish design and production achievements in the field of two-wheelers in the period of the Second Polish Republic.

Reprint of the 2005 edition. Text in Polish.

Polskie motocykle 1946-1985

For several years after the end of World War II, a motorcycle was the only motor vehicle available to ordinary citizens in Poland. In later years, it motorized the Polish countryside. In total, by the end of production in 1985, nearly 3 million motorcycles and scooters had left Polish factories.

This book presents almost forty years of history of the Polish post-war motorcycles and scooters and the people who created them.
Older readers will be reminded of the ancient times when vehicles of the following brands reigned on our roads: WFM, WSK, SHL, SFM, while younger readers will be introduced to these vehicles.

Motorowery w PRL. Historia Motoryzacji w PRL. Tom 9

Ce livre est la première étude approfondie des cyclomoteurs et petites motos polonaises d'après-guerre, couvrant aussi bien les modèles de série que les prototypes rares et séries limitées.
Le dernier chapitre explore les moteurs auxiliaires polonais pour vélos et leur histoire méconnue.
Les cyclomoteurs ont joué un rôle essentiel dans la motorisation de la Pologne d'après-guerre - légers, simples et abordables, ils se sont largement répandus sur les routes.
Si des marques comme Ryś, Komar et Romet sont bien connues, il en existait beaucoup d'autres, certaines légèrement différentes, d'autres entièrement uniques.
Aujourd'hui, les collectionneurs recherchent ces véhicules à restaurer ou en état de marche.
Cette monographie aide à faire le bon choix, ce qui est difficile en raison du manque de documentation.
L'auteur, Jerzy Kossowski, rédacteur en chef du magazine Automobilista, enrichit son texte de 147 photos en couleur et de 6 dessins techniques.
