Thanks for your interest in our scooters. At the very beginning, when they are lined up, there is a red Puch RLA, 1958; then a white DKW Hobby, 1957; then a blue Terrot VMS1, 1952; then a red and white NSU Prima D, 1958; and finally a blue Dürkopp Diana, 1957.
Thanks Fred. As you have probably found in a comment below, the scooters are as follows: At the very beginning, when they are lined up, there is a red Puch RLA, 1958; then a white DKW Hobby, 1957; then a blue Terrot VMS1, 1952; then a red and white NSU Prima D, 1958; and finally a blue Dürkopp Diana, 1957.
My best friend used to give me his Dad's old popular science mags from the 50's. They were chocked full of scooter ads & write ups from the scooter craze. Then I got an Sil Lambretta 175 right after high school. I got a twisty now but man I miss my shifty. I'd kill for that Diana.
Thanks for the enquiry and the comments. The songs, in order that they play on the clip are: For Dancers Only, by Jimmie Lunceford and his Orchestra Undecided by Ella Fitzgerald One O'Clock Jump by Benny Goodman and his Orchestra
Thanks for the feedback, I can't adjust the music now it is uploaded, but I will take your suggestion on board for our next video, which will be either our 1954 Motobecane SC or 1957 TWN Tessy. Go the mighty Puch!
Beautiful scooters. Any chance of listing the what they are and the year in order. I recognise a three of them but it would be nice to see the listing.
shame looked like some great scooters but unwatchable due to overbearing crap music, totally distracting, I like many other want to hear the engine noise
very nice scooters all of them. where do you find puch and durkopp diana and nsu parts? iknow germany but does one to have any part remade or can one find reproduction parts?
+weser1965 Hi Weser, Puch is actually well serviced, with 2 Austrian companies selling original and new, remade parts online. One even has an English website. Likewise, NSU has a couple of equivalents in Germany. Some of the outsourced parts, such as Magura and Bing, are still being made. The Dürkopp, on the other hand, was very hard. It took us several years to accumulate used parts and find remade rubber parts. We made a few ourselves and were very lucky to be put in touch with a German artisan who made the seats and small rubber parts. Thanks for watching!
thank you sir. iknew of a couple from germany who lived here in the states and were restoring durkopp dianas this was probably ten or twenty years ago. veryinterested in scooters like puch and the manurhin excuse dkw hobby. as well. used to have a lambretta and then a spacy or honda elite 150 and last a gilera runner 180. but sold the last one backin 2013. on hiatus. but still interested. someday. thank you for your fine work . lovely scooters.
Hi Jim, I don't know of anyone in your area. Keep an eye on Craigslist and eBay. We found a few of ours through word of mouth also. Good luck with your search.
+JustTheCool001 MSP The Dürkopp Diana. 200cc and rides a bit like a motorbike. The Puch and the NSU Prima are next; Puch acceleration and hill climbing is better but NSU has slightly higher top speed on the flat. Then the DKW Hobby, and the Terrot is the slowest.
Sorry, we sold all our spares. I gather you have tried TradeMe? It took many months for us to collect the parts we were missing. German eBay was also useful. Good luck
Hummm...Let's see. Video about rare and unusual scooters. Absolutely NO information about the scoots including even what they are. But way more information about the overly loud music than I need to know. So many videos are ruined by bad or loud music. And it drowned out the sound of the scooters. Maybe you should stick to music videos. How about a re-edit with some narration describing what they are. Now THAT I would upvote.
The information about the music is inserted by TH-cam, or supplied by us in response to questions from viewers. The scooters' Make and age are listed in the credits and they have also been described in answer to a previous comment. Obviously, you didn't watch to the end because you hated the music. Your comment re music has been noted, but please refrain from criticising aspects of the video you didn't even watch.
Then don't make videos that are unwatchable to the end. I love vintage scooters. I have 5. I refuse to support bad videos. Listen to your critics rather than chastise them and you might have more than 47 subscribers. I really would love it if you would do videos on each of your beautiful scoots and talk about their history, their positives and their negatives. I would watch each of them multiple time. You could even make some money ...
I had a 78 Puch moped when I was a kid but never knew they made scooters. I'll bet all 5 are worth a small fortune. Well done.

Beautiful scooters. Any chance of listing the what they are and the year in order. I recognise a three of them but it would be nice to see the listing.
you really need to say more and play less music.
Thanks for the input. Yes, the music is too loud. Our video editing skills have improved since then.
+Redsonic the music is great
shame looked like some great scooters but unwatchable due to overbearing crap music, totally distracting, I like many other want to hear the engine noise

Would be a good video, how to bear that F'n music though.
I bought a 1950 NSU Prima light blue in color in 63 it was a great scooter. Do you know any one that has one for sale? I'am in Minnesota USA
Hi Jim, I don't know of anyone in your area. Keep an eye on Craigslist and eBay. We found a few of ours through word of mouth also. Good luck with your search.
Which one is the fastest?

Hi there I am looking for some engine parts for my dkw manhurin scooter. a piston and cylinder head. can you help? From NZ :)
Sorry, we sold all our spares. I gather you have tried TradeMe? It took many months for us to collect the parts we were missing. German eBay was also useful. Good luck
Where's the Cushman Road King?
Maybe such a scooter is scarce in Britain? No classic Japanese (Fuji Rabbit, or Mitsubishi Silver Pigeon) scooters either.
