The BMW is traded by now for a nice Moto Guzzi V7. The dear fellow also wanted the side car, but that was a bad deal. He also had a Moto Guzzi Lodola 175cc and I traded that one for the sidecar.

I did it again, I wanted to sell the NSU Maxi, which turned out to be not that easy. I found a nice Puch 175SV and a very nice moped Rap Crown, we both wanted to trade so we did. The main problem however there was also a decent looking Batavus tourist moped for sale, having one moped was no options so thats why I did it again. I finally sold one bike because a needed more space in the garage and now I have three instead.

I bought a small trailer, PAV41, to be connected to the Jawa. It needed a little work but it was complete .
The driving season is almost over and I sold the MZ during a show in Woerden. Delivered the MZ the next day to the new owner and about two weeks later he had her inspected and called me to tell how happy he was with her. Which is always nice to hear 
The very same day I bought an IFA 350 BK  with bad brakes and wheels but furthermore in nice shape.
I sold the AWO with sidecar and finally the Honda CM400T.

Updated June 26 2002

Update March 2002
The MZ  is almost finished and has been running already. The last thing to do is the spedometer and control lamps. Added some pictures of the MZ. Added an extra chapter concerning our cars.

Update December-2001
So the season is over again. Not to many things done besides riding the bike.
We went on a short vacation to Turkey and offcourse all the trips and weekends.
Selling or trading the BMW for a Condor 580A did not work-out. I Finally decided to fix the BMW and sell her in a good working condition.
I fixed the gearbox and clutch tested the bike and decided not to sell her. Realy a BMW is the most comfortable bike you can think of, even better then the Guzzi.
The eleven cities turned out to be a great weekend and so did the 4 day trip through Holland with the Puch club.

Updated on 07-july-2001
The new season started some time ago and the last winter time I have done some repair on the bikes.  
As already written several things had to be done on the bikes. Almost all is done
The AWO Solo is fitted with a new generator, is in good running condition now but needs a new clutch which I have But there is hardly any time. Will be done during the season.
The Sparta Twin is fitted with new front brake and at least will brake a little now.
The PUCH 250SG is fitted with all new bearings which took much longer than planned but is running great again.
The PUCH 175 is fixed after Maja's brake action.
Stil to be done The BMW R50 I am even thinking of selling her. Since I hardly ever used her
