SpeedCruiser

When Frank Hoffmann took his motorcycle out of the transporter at the TunerGP at the Hockenheimring, he was immediately surrounded by a crowd of curious people. They did not hold back with their comments. Quotes from PS editors have come down to us that sounded something like this: "It's not pretty," one of them quipped, "and it's not painted either," the other. The head of tech at the time, and today's managing director of Wunderlich, was never at a loss for a quick-witted answer and teased back: "Drive first. Then ask questions". He knew what he was rolling off the transporter and surprised the representatives of the trade press in the pit lane who, instead of a sleek RR, saw a brute-looking boxer whose potency could be felt even without being in motion. Hoffmann and his technicians had taken every part, every component into their hands and consecrated it to the god of performance, and even when stationary it was clear that the thing would run like the devil. The whole anecdote can be read in a contemporary issue of PS Das Sport-Motorradmagazin. 

Without a doubt, this motorcycle had made an impression. Placed on the side stand. But even more so when riding. The secret: The adjustable paralever strut and the triple clamp came from the Wunderlich sales shelf, other fine components from Magura. The aluminium rear end, the tank cover and the swingarm conversion came from Wunderlich. 131 hp at 195 kg were a statement, especially in connection with the grandiose, good-natured and in the best sense entertaining suspension, which the technicians around Frank Hoffmann had put on the light PVM forged wheels. Not least because of this, this driving machine had been christened the SpeedCruiser. 

We manufactured a handful of this fascinating motorcycle. They were all built in Sinzig on the Rhine. Their price at the time was € 35,000.
