Hej Jan
Det var en interessant historie, nu tænkte jeg på nyere og nutidige
knallerter. Jeg syntes at jeg engang imellem i Sønderborgs bybillede
ser/hører noget der ligner en Puch men med 4-takts lyd og flere gear.
På nettet har jeg i mellemtiden fundet ud af der bliver produceret mange
kinesiske honda-kloner, som f.eks Jialing RCM-M
http://www.rcmoto.com/m.htm
-og det kunne godt være sådan en jeg ser.. Findes der danske importører af
disse kina-knallerter ?
