Peter`s grin whilst he thinks "Im getting paid to do this". What a fantastic machine.

I’ve got a great photo of my grandfather in the Western Desert in WW2 on a captured Kettenkrad. Interesting to see one working, thanks.

What a superb thing - your face says it all. I'd no idea they were so narrow.

G'day from Australia, l have had a smile on my dial all the time I watched that ride, pity you don't go down the high street, that would turn some heads, cheers.

Beautiful! The head lamp's missing... I'd just finished a plastic model Italieri on scale 1/9, hell of a job it was. But now I see a lot of parts from which the need is explained, such as the two black rubber knee bumpers 😅 Isn't there some lecture available on this machine?

If a friend told you to shut your eyes, as he had a new machine to show you, and then asked you to guess what it is purely from the engine note, I honestly think most would say Tank, even before it moves? What is it about these sort of vehicles that creates that uniquely ‘tank’ sound? What a fabulous machine. 👍❤️✅😎

@@nigelcox7477 In Russia they have many vehicles with tracks such as trucks, snowcats, farmers tractors; it is widespread overthere. They mostly run on cheap kerose

Powered by a 1.5 litre opel petrol engine i believe. Apparently after the war many of these were acquired by european farmers for logging and shifting/pulling things.

Grüße aus Deutschland. 😂 er hat wirklich Spaß dabei. Kettenkrad macht sicher mehr Spaß als jedes Quad. Es gab auch noch welche die bei der Feuerwehr oder in der Landwirtschaft verwendet wurden. Gut das ihr dieses erhalten habt.

Just realised that cover in front of the forks is a light shield. For one moment I thought that was a Mother-in-Law seat🤣🤣🤣

@geoffbenoy2052 2 ай бұрын

Indeed, it was a very special light with mirrors in the lamp so that it only shone a few meters on the ground in the front. Makes it invisible from tha air. Many of the German vehicles and tanks had one

Hello Andy ,A few facts you didn't mention? built by NSU at their Neckersulm Werkes , But it used other makers components Front forks were made by Triumph of Nurnberg, The 4 cylinder engine was a Opel power unit, designed to carry 2 soldiers plus driver on quick offensive pincer movements , but was obsolite and useless in retreat! hence not made after 1942.

Anything with so-called Caterpillar tracks is a nightmare to maintain! Even modern ones with so-called `sealed tracks!' This will need constant greasing/tensioning but the `grin' factor may help to mitigae against that!
