I so remember the Mammoth and I really wanted one. A 1200cc engine on a motor bike was unheard of at the time - ! 😅

@fidelcatsro6948 Ай бұрын

Darn it made as much power as my bandit1200 from 2006

@simongee8928 Ай бұрын

Probably the main issue would have been if a Mammoth fell over with or without you on board, getting it upright again would have been an interesting challenge - ! 😲 😄

Harley-Davidson had a 74 cubic inch (1,212.6 cc) V-Twin engine in 1921 Not particularly powerful, but still…

@@hughcrawford5 I was told by a not too reliable source in the early 70s that Harley made an 1800cc 'Super Glide' that wasn't exported to the UK because at the time, the police didn't have anything that could catch it - ! 🤣

In 1977, the German celebrity and playboy Gunther Sachs drove over my foot in a crowd in St. Tropez, France, with his Münch TTS. That was actually the only time I saw a Münch live and in color. :))

I love that front drum brake, it's beautiful. Would look great on a cafe bike. Got a chance to look at a mammoth at the Barber museum, it's very impressive in person

A collection of interesting Munch variants was displayed in Speyer, in the Technik Museum, Germany. They reserved a complete corner for them.

Another gem, thanks! I first learned of the Mammut by playing the Top Trumps card game - you knew if the category was capacity, you were on to a winner! And, yes, please do a follow up!

'" Packed with electronics" what on earth are you talking about? This is 1960's the most electronic part of the bike was probably the condenser( = capacitor) in the ignition system. All these old cars had few if any electronics as we know them today. Try some research!

Helmut Fath made 500cc four cylinder engines for racing sidecar machines, and three world chapionships were won with that outfit. Later, he made a liquid cooled two stroke flat four.

3:21 As far as I know, the Münch brake was never sold to any team - they preferred Ceriani and Fontana! During a test by "Das Motorrad" in 1973, the top speed of the 1200 cc Münch Mammut was 207 km/h, far from your 225 km/h! In 1977, the top speed of the now 1278 cc measuring Mammut was given as "Over 200 km/h", in 1978 it was measured as 196 km/h - where did you get that figure of 225 km/h?. 5:05 It was NOT the first production motor cycle with alloy wheels. 5:11 There were four cylinder motor cycles long before the Münch, and long before the Japanese fours? Two years, to be exact! 5:25 Absolutely NOT! The frame was tubular steel! 5:53 Testers of "Das Motorrad" complained of difficult handling because of the short wheelbase! As usual with these videos of motorcycle history, you know too little of the real history!

@kevinbrown7219 Ай бұрын

Yeah this is typical of people with little or no knowledge of motorcycles and their history, make a video riddled with inaccuracies and hope it does well.
