Going thursday morning to pick up a 1953 Zundapp DB202. Looks like this one, just not as shiny and assembled.
It will be my first hardtail, does that mean it's a bobber :o
it was cheap, $250, and has a title. Needs a main bearing, we'll see. I've already located 2 complete bottom ends for it.

You did this just to qualify for the 100/100/100 ride, didn't you?
Nope, it's 4 years too new and won't be riding by the 100/100/100. Or capable of 100mph unless we drop it from an airplane.
It was a dumb luck find, I love old quirky stuff. It will be great to putter around on. Plus it's a 2 smoker, with dual exhaust!
 
Had a similar '54 Zundapp 200 except it was single exhaust port. You are not missing much. I sold it in 1977 or so for $50. It was a twofer deal out in front of the house and I made him take another '57 Zundapp I had too. Both bikes ran fine and I rode them in the fields.
