MESSERSCHMITT TG500 TIGER
2-seater scooter.
Super-bubble with extra rear wheel and hydraulic brakes. The aircooled Fichtel & Sachs vertical twin gives 20bhp, hence 75mph. Four speeds, but like the three-wheelers, it's got no synchromesh. Rare anywhere, but a few came to England; survival rate good.
