A Zundapp 200S like the one in the picture,was my first introduction to the world of motorcycling when I was 16 in 1960, bought for the sum of £85. This was the start of my passion for German motorcycles. Now 50 years later,it hasn’t gone away !!

Horex Regina is regarded as a much sort after German classic motorrad ,not in the mold of the likes of ‘NSU,BMW etc, its engine originated in the 30’s as a Columbus,which became incorporated in the Horex concern,is of almost English design ie push rod OHV in 250,350 and 400cc capacity and amazingly a gear change on the right hand side,with a 1 up and 3 down gear change(all other German bikes are of 1down3 up, arrangment,with the exception of Adler and Maico which were neutral at bottom and all gears 4 up)to my latest knowledge there only 3 reginas in the uk.
