Way to go Kip! I now have a list of over 20 Sachs-powered motorcycles! Thanks everybody. With a bit more research, I have a definite story.

Hi , I'm pretty sure we can erase Dalesman, they had a Puch motor. American Eagle/Galaxy Eagle was a british company whose motors were almost exact copies of Husky 250 & 400 motors. I don't know anything about their 125. You can find  pictures & tests of those in Dirt Bike Mag. Dec.71 & Mar.72.

Dalesman also had Sachs motored bikes.  I don't know about the Puch part but there were many Sachs powered Dalesman.

Most of the dirt bikes that came from American Eagle were made by Sprite in the UK. The 125 MX bike had a Zundapp motor while the trials bike had a Sachs. There was a 125 Sprite MX at Mid Ohio in the swap meet that was converted from Zundapp to Sachs power. The 405 was thier copy of the Husky motor. I think the 250 had a Kawasaki motor. The Dalesmans did come with  Puch motors from 69 to 72 and Sachs motors from 72 to 74
