SUMMARY

Well built, Continental 70cc lightweight with a number of innovative features.

DESCRIPTION

  • Although its big four-stroke models reappeared after WW2, Zündapp mainly concentrated on the production of two-stroke mopeds, scooters and lightweight motorcycles such as the Falconette
  • The Type 438 was a 70cc version that was only sold in Great Britain. Although well-received here, it was quite expensive for its day, so today this model is very rare.
  • It was an extremely well-built machine, distinctive by its double rear shock absorbers
  • These are adjustable, inasmuch as you can make either one or both of them operational for a harder or softer ride.
  • Acquired by our ageing vendor a number of years ago, it will require an element of recommissioning having been unused for some years
  • Competitively guided as some recommissioning required before use
