Title: Simpson/AWO motorcycles
Post by: timbo on September 12, 2016, 08:59:46 PM

This might interest some of you lot. At this years MGP/Classic TT, a group of German enthusiasts brought over a collection of the above bikes, which they rode and displayed all over the island. To find out more about these rare, but beautiful bikes, www.awo-rennkollektiv.de
Also, there was another group of German enthusiasts, doing the same with a dozen rare Victoria motorcycles.
Bis spater  ;)

I know a German guy who is renovating a Victoria, I only saw it as a load of bits in the back of his car, he bought it because it is his daughters name. I will be seeing him in a few weeks so will be good to see how it is coming along.

Now to google it to see what it is meant to look like.

Here's a couple of pics. The first is some AWO/Simpsons, and the second is a WW2 German Victoria dispatch bike, tracked down in Estonia a few years ago
