He was riding this Scout in the Wall of Death from 1948 -1954 in Germany, and kept riding this Scout till last year when he turned 83 years old. I had the honour to buy the bike from him, even I told him I wouldn`t let it original. Out of respect of Hans and the massive history this bike has, I kept all the original parts. |
