I have emailed some guys over there and they said most of the aluminum tank bikes were built for the factory race teams. Still doing research on it.

My brother purchased this bike new off showroom floor while living in Germany. He raced it in Germany for 2 years then took bike apart and shipped it to the US. I raced bike until 1987, mainly did blackjack enduros, a few hare scrambles. I never once had to do anything to the bike. No top end no fork seals. I sold the bike back in 1988, recently found the bike it had any been to 2 other people. The guy I sold it to only kept it for 2 months then sold it to the guy I purchased it back from. He told me he never rode the bike, he said he just purchased it to help the other guy out who needed money. He even had my repair manuals.  Had to drive 16 hours to get bike.  But now it is never leaving again.

Sorry about the long story, but I purchased my first bike back after 29 years. My brother purchased a 1977 ktm while living in Germany. He rode it while there then shipped it to the states and I raced enduros with it until 1987. I sold the bike but recently tracked it down and repurchased it.  I am in the process of restoring it and I would like to find somebody who can rebuild my engine and restore side covers and all.
Thanks so much
