Description
The Maico Mobil is an early touring motorcycle made by Maico between 1950 and 1958. Conceived and marketed as a “car on two wheels”, the Mobil had body panels that enclosed the drivetrain, protected its riders from the elements, and included an integral pair of panniers and a mount for a spare tyre.

A curious creature. I may have seen these about as a child, but I can't remember them.

A super looking bike and must have been the Rolls Royce of the motorcycle world.

Always been a fan of old micro cars and this has those bubble looks. Never seen one before so this is a real treat Andrew. Thanks!

Mmmmm! Grunt! Etc! LOL Looks like Scooter to me... We used to burn Scooters.. (Joke!) No, we didn't like them.. Sounded like ruptured hairdryers! Still do.. Mind you, looks very stylish so you can bet it didn't take off much! Rare fine.. (There is a Scooter behind it though.... Grunt! lol ) ;-) Rob

Je découvre à travers ces photos un autre musée que celui de Mulhouse.

That brings back an old memory. I rode a Vespa while saving up for my first car. Same color but not as wide.
