Today I have a particularly beautiful example from the Simson series for you, the Simson KR 50, the original Schwalbe from 1961. I'll show you the technology and the visual features, and we'll also do a test drive. If you own a good piece like this or have driven one before, then write to me in the comments. Your Oldtimer Blondie. 😊 -----------Contents------------- 0:00 Start 0:15 Intro with initial information 1:11 Introduction to the KR 50 3:01 Notes on installed add-on parts from the 1963 model year 4:10 Function of the pull buttons under the handlebars 4:52 Explanation of the 2-speed manual gearshift 5:20 Theft protection in 1961?! 6:06 Special features when dismantling the tunnel 6:50 Engine of the KR 50 7:18 Notes on the carburetor 7:57 Bearing of the rear swing arm / lubrication plan 8:46 Engine start 9:24 Start of the test drive 10:43 Farewell + further information Thanks for watching :)
