Location: Eastern Front. This is not one of the common Wehrmacht bikes. It still has a private plate (IA = Berlin), thus creating many possibilites what this might be. |

Why "500" and why "1936", brotherjack? |
◊ 2015-04-11 11:32 |
And robi, only ? Is it not one of the subjects of the scene? (I'm just asking. Yo saw the film, I didn't.) |
◊ 2015-04-11 11:42 |
Yes, only , because in that scene it was mostly hidden behind people walking in front of it. |

"silencer" are black painted on 500 and chromed on 350 1936 is the first year production |

I checked it, brotherjack is perfectly right: Official Audi page: Link to "www.audi.com" Please change name to: 1936 DKW SB 500 |

If I may add: (Source: Link to "www.dkw-autounion.de") -The front fork should be of a new closed design (to improve handling with a sidecar mounted), not this open type. -The 500 cylinder head has different fin design, and this cylinder looks too small for a 500. Design mathes 350 (or even a 200 engine?) -The silencer was black on the 'Normal' versions, and chromed on 'Luxus'. (not just for the 500) -BTW, versions with electric start had an 'A' suffix (Anlasser, or starter motor in English. But you wont see a starter motor, it was a Dynastart) |

So, tore-40, this actually can't be a 500 because of the fork, right? |
◊ 2015-04-29 22:08 |
The fork, and the engine. The cooling fins and other details are wrong for a 500. BTW, you shuold add a 'c' above - 'Design matches 350' makes more sense |
◊ 2015-04-29 22:22 |
(Naah, don't worry, I mentally added the missing 'c', just like I read "should" when you write "shuold".) So, I reverse to '37 SB 350, according to what I understand of what I see here: Link to "www.dkw-autounion.de" |
