Thank you for building the Sherpa T at Bultaco Sammy. It's one of the most beautiful trials bike ever built. Stay well and keep riding.

This is something special having a legendary motorcyclist like Sammy Miller doing a presentation and he doesn't mess about on that NSU.

[@GringoBack]

I want to be like this in the future. Riding forever! Even if I'm old with gray hair... That's amazing. And the guy is so cool and full of life :) inspiring.

A true LEGEND, to use an overused word. Love the way he tucks in behind the fairing, not all knees and bits poking into the wind.

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

So true 57 Dogsbody!

[@hartmutschubert7355]

5 speed gearbox! Sound is fantastic.

In its day the Sportmax was one of the best 250 cc bikes available to the non works riders , Sammy , Hailwood, Surtees and many more had great success on these superb machines

[@nicolasdolley3882]

Fantastic

[@dunzjos9754]

The man, the legend!!!!

[@whalesong999]

Based on the production engine I see, what a fantastic machine for the time.

[@thebones]

Not a leg-end but a Legend!

[@ronniedarragh6579]

Wonder was that Terry Hills nsu Hills Engineering Belfast?

[@ronvalente65]

Was it basically the same engine as the Supermax? I had a 1960 Supermax but had a bad accident on it, someone bought it and made it into a sand racer.

[@donalfredisaac]

I believe basically it was the same engine but it had 28 hp instead of the standard engine which had 18 hp. I myself when younger owned three standard Supermax, one after the other, also I´m a NSU fan but did not know that in 1957 it was faster than the 350cc and the 500cc other bikes, what a motorcycle and rider !
