G'day from Australia, l have had a smile on my dial all the time I watched that ride, pity you don't go down the high street, that would turn some heads, cheers.
Grüße aus Deutschland. 😂 er hat wirklich Spaß dabei. Kettenkrad macht sicher mehr Spaß als jedes Quad. Es gab auch noch welche die bei der Feuerwehr oder in der Landwirtschaft verwendet wurden. Gut das ihr dieses erhalten habt.
Powered by a 1.5 litre opel petrol engine i believe. Apparently after the war many of these were acquired by european farmers for logging and shifting/pulling things.
If a friend told you to shut your eyes, as he had a new machine to show you, and then asked you to guess what it is purely from the engine note, I honestly think most would say Tank, even before it moves? What is it about these sort of vehicles that creates that uniquely ‘tank’ sound? What a fabulous machine. 👍❤️✅😎
Hello Andy ,A few facts you didn't mention? built by NSU at their Neckersulm Werkes , But it used other makers components Front forks were made by Triumph of Nurnberg, The 4 cylinder engine was a Opel power unit, designed to carry 2 soldiers plus driver on quick offensive pincer movements , but was obsolite and useless in retreat! hence not made after 1942.

Anything with so-called Caterpillar tracks is a nightmare to maintain! Even modern ones with so-called `sealed tracks!' This will need constant greasing/tensioning but the `grin' factor may help to mitigae against that!
Peter`s grin whilst he thinks "Im getting paid to do this". What a fantastic machine.
What a superb thing - your face says it all. I'd no idea they were so narrow.
I’ve got a great photo of my grandfather in the Western Desert in WW2 on a captured Kettenkrad. Interesting to see one working, thanks.

Industrial vacuum cleaner ??
Nice! Schönes Fahrzeug! 😊
Just realised that cover in front of the forks is a light shield. For one moment I thought that was a Mother-in-Law seat🤣🤣🤣
Видел такой в Японии, привезли янки, затем оставили местному жителю, на ходу, в отличном состоянии
Well Done , That Man !
Cheers From California 😎

They are a 'wunderbar'!
This was the final form of Peter we were all warned about.
Looks compleet, and realy good
But Andy didn't say "Mind them potholes, Peter" even once. That was interesting!
😂😂
They used to capsize a lot!
Show wondrously cool!
A true beauty
O.K. it`s fun, but what was it`s military pupose .
There are pictures of them carrying ammo etc in a trailer and towing aircraft around airfields
Surely there's a track day coming up?
😂
I saw the rear end on the '29 AJS video.
I guessed weird sidecar.
Well, sort of. 😂
Hey it was 1944. German tech. Unbeatable
On today's roads it's ideal!
Id love one of those. I wish someone would make an affordable replica.
I'd say Peter can ride almost anything if he can ride a 1940s German halftrack!

Well that's a mad thing.
very cool.
🤣🤣🤣 poor old Peter’s back.
With that helmet and how peter drives he's a 1% mechanic l reckon.
That thing is a rocket. 😂
It provoked the inner hooligan in Peter. 😈
I could see it pull a little cart with a tap and a barbecue. 🍖🍺
Wie fahren gegen Engeland
