NSU Quickly Engine Overhaul

[@zoltankaparthy9095]

Das war schoen, ganz ja schoen. A thoroughly German job, precise, clean, orderly and correct. You did a great job. Now if we could just clone you . . . I had a Quickly as a kid so this was very interesting. Vielen Dank.

Concerning the German lyrics from around 2:35 on, a rough English version would be My grandma rides a motorcycle without brake without light her horn is stolen and the rear tire not airtight. The gas tank is leaking badly and the exhaust bangs and cracks but grandma drives happily through the mild summer night.

Nicht mehr laufen, Quickly kaufen! Sehr schönes Video!👍🏻 Mit den Quicklys hat meine Schrauber Leidenschaft vor 25 Jahren angefangen! Ich erinnere mich noch genau wie die Motoren gerochen haben😅

Hoffentlich nicht so säuerlich, wie das eingetrocknete getriebeöl in diesem Exemplar xD

[@Rustinox]

Good thing you could still find parts for this thing. For some brands they just don't exist anymore.

[@AstraWerke]

I was surprised how well-organised the parts supplier was - even if you didn't know the term for the part, you could just click on it on an explosion drawing and the website led you straight to it.

As Rustinox mentioned in your comments --- I too was surprised you were still able to get --- gaskets --- of course gaskets can be made -- seals --- O-rings and bearings ---- can be measured up ----- Nice Little video --- Thank You ---- Rodney

My guess is that in postwar Germany, nobody had the money to buy a car, so everybody drove one of these. They must have been built by the millions, so it's still profitable today to sell spares.

Man, you'll take on ANYTHING!😂 Working on this engine after the Model A 4-banger must be like a clock maker working on a pocket watch. 5:49 Fire Extinguisher On Standby!😳 I sure hope your shop coat is fire resistant. 8:19 Every good mechanic knows that stubborn parts require 2 parts hammer and 5 parts profanity!🤬 Thanks for this. It was really interesting.

I guess as oil-drenched as it is, it will probably burn for a good few minutes before the tissue starts taking damage xD

These small 50cc Mc is called “mopeds” in Sweden. NSU was also popular in Sweden back in the days. Good work

[@skategeezer1810]

Another great job well done.

[@williamsworkshopuk]

I still can't believe how you manage to be working with engines and chinos and a shirt!

[@AstraWerke]

The English operate their steam tractors in white shirts and tie... Now that's next level!

Ich habe nun 150 Zweitaktmotoren überholt, und man benutzt da kein spannband wie bei 4 taktern...Denn man läuft immer Gefahr dass ein Ring sich beim spannen verdreht. Von daher alles gut wie du es gemacht hast. 👍 Selbst beim dkw F8 geht es so, nur dass man sich da Gabeln aus Holz baut zum gegenhalten( zwischen Kolben und Motorrumpf) Zum aufsetzen der Ringe kann mach sich 3 0,1mm fühlerblattlehren nehmen (zwischen kolben und Ring)...gibts bestimmt irgendwo Bilder im Netz....

[@AstraWerke]

Vielen Dank, gut zu wissen!

[@roten2902]

oh ja das kenne ich aus meine moped zeit, hatte da mal eine hercules prima 5s 25 kmh. da habe ich auch dem motor zerlegt, danach fuhr sie 50 kmh. das gefiel den wachmann aber nicht und ich konnte sie dann nach einer woche von der dekra in einzelteile abholen und ich habe sie doch vorher so schön ordentlich zusammen geschraubt...🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍

[@AstraWerke]

Herrlich xD Ich hatte überlegt, noch die Kanäle etwas zu vergrößern und zu polieren, aber das wollte der Besitzer nicht Schade ;)

[@roten2902]

@@AstraWerke ja da kann ich mir vorstellen, das video hat mich so ein meiner jugend erinnert danke dafür... 😉

[@chrisrhodes5464]

Well you have found a motor that you can rebuild while you are waiting for parts to get the ford back together hopefully soon you will be putting up a video of it going together soon

The NSU Quickly was the 50 cc machine to own ,until the great Honda 50 cub came along & blew it into the weeds .
