Zundapp
From CycleChaos
Zundapp was founded in 1917 to make gun parts. They were one of the more successful German firms for many years, with successful bikes such as the KS750 flat twin, which served in the Second World War with German troops, and the sporty 1951 model KS601, which was also known as the Green Elephant. Zundapp did quite well in the 1960s and 1970s, producing many successful off-road competition bikes and two-stroke roadsters. Sales began to fall fast in the early 1980s. Stefan Dorflinger won the 80cc world title for Zundapp in 1984, but the firm went into liquidation the following year.
