== Overview ==
The NSU 301 T motorcycle was produced from 1929 to 1930. It
was the first version to be produced as a touring model, with flat tank and
side-controlled valves. The engine originally had encapsulated valves, variable
supplementary lubrication, a compression spring saddle, footrests instead of
running boards, wired-on tires and a flat aluminum exhaust silencer. The model
had a 3-speed manual gearbox and a gear-driven oil pump.
In late 20s NSU offered several „T” (Tourist) models,
single-cylinder four-stroke machines with fuel tanks placed under the frame.
They were: 201T (199 cc, 4,5 HP, top speed: 65 kph, 12900 units built in
1929-1930), 251T (249 cc, 6 HP, top speed: 75 kph, 400 units built in
1928-1929), and 301T, 9300 units of 301T were built in 1929-1930. The 501T
joined the family in 1929, too.
