Here we have a 1956 Nimbus was totally renovated in Denmark and only has about 2,000 km on the engine for the break-in period and is now 100% "ready to ride "! This Nimbus looks even better now than it did before leaving Copenhagen :) as I have added even more new parts since it's arrival. It is museum quality in looks but is built to be ridden and is one of the easiest and most comfortable antique motorcycles to ride ever built. Way ahead of it's time in technology it remained virtually unchanged for the entire length of production from 1934 to 1959. With features like overhead cam shaft, accelerator pump, positive crankcase ventilation, foot shift (1938 and up), shaft drive and many more details put it decades ahead of both Harley and Indian motorcycles. Used extensively by the post office, police department and the military, many were still in service by these departments right up into the 1970's. And with about 14k of them built over half are still registered and running in Denmark alone ! This is a number unlike any other motorcycle ever made proving both their durability and their dedicated following. With only a few more than 200 of them in this country this is a very rare and desirable motorcycle. I recently entered it in the judging at the Antique Motorcycle Club of America show and meet in Fremont Nebraska on the 27th and 28th of February. It received 99 1/2 points with only two deductions, both of which have been remedied. I see no reason why it won't score as a 100 point motorcycle the next time it is judged. Asking 15K or best offer. Please contact me for more information or pictures, Travis Scott The Nimbus Nut 719-641-6484
