Zündapp motorcycle at the Royal Air Force Museum (RAF Museum) in London. Very rare second world war (WW2) Nazi German Zündapp motorcycle at the Royal Airforce Museum, London: Let's go to the world famous RAF Museum (Royal Airforce Museum) in London and let's view the most famous motorcycle motorcycle used by the German army during the second world war (WW2), the Zündapp DB 200. The motorcycles Zündapp DB 200 with tubular frame and Zündapp DBK 200 with box frame were manufactured between 1935 and 1951 by Zündapp Werke GmbH in Nuremberg . The single-cylinder two-stroke engine Zündapp DB 200 with double exhaust system is particularly characteristic of this series.
The Zündapp DB 200 motorcycle was built from 1935 to 1940 and from 1947 to 1951 as a civilian and, during the Second World War, as a military machine. Because of its robustness and reliability, it was nicknamed the “farmer's motorcycle”. With 96,499 [1] produced copies and a low purchase price DB 200 contributed to the popular motoring in Germany. The Zündapp DBK 200 was produced from 1936 to 1940 and was expensive to purchase.
Zündapp (aka Zuendapp) was a major German motorcycle manufacturer founded in 1917 in Nuremberg and the machine tool manufacturer Thiel under the name "Zünder- und Apparatebau G.m.b.H." as a producer of detonators (Zünder- und Apparatebau is German for Igniter and Apparatus). In 1919, as the demand for weapons parts declined after WWI, Neumeyer became the sole proprietor of the company, and two years later he diversified into the construction of motorcycles.
