Oldtimer Motorcycle Restoration

At the age of 13, I rolled my mom’s old motorcycle out of the garage and started working on it. I did not stop until I went to college.

My mom bought her motorcycle in the 80s on the black market. Wait times for a new car or bike in Eastern Germany at that time were up to 18 years.
