The first NSU motorcycle appeared in 1901 followed by a NSU car in 1905. The devastation of WW2 left NSU’s factories completely destroyed, but they resumed production of their pre-war models in 1946 and introduced the Max in 1953. By 1955 NSU had become the largest motorcycle producer in the world and was said to have inspired Soichiro Honda in his early designs. The Max had some very innovative features including a monocoque frame made from pressed steel, a design that was later inherited by other models in the range including the famous Quickly 50cc moped. More than a million Quicklys were made to various specifications built with typical German quality and featuring advanced designs such as a chrome bore, thought to be a more recent innovation. First sold in the UK in 1954, they were actually distributed by Vincent Motorcycles alongside their own bigger bikes.

This Quickly in the classic NSU colours of Blue and Cream has been restored keeping a good degree of originality even down to the tyre pump attached to the rear carrier. Although it was one of the top selling mopeds in its day across Europe, very few have survived. It comes supplied with a current V5C.
