Kreidler Florett RS (1970)
Kreidler Florett RS was a German moped of Kreidler's Metall- und Drahtwerke G.m.b.H. in Kornwestheim near Stuttgart (Germany), of which 125,000 pieces have been built between 1967 and 1981.[1] The mark Florett RS was the fastest of Kreidler and in comparison to Hercules K 50 and Zündapp KS 50 an equally good choice.
Specifications[]
Small motorcycles with up to 50 cm³ capacity were exempt from taxes and licence plates and could be driven with a Class 4 driving licence with a minimum age of 16 years. To stop the competitive spiral, the three leading manufactureres Kreidler, Hercules and Zündapp agreed 1970 to a voluntary limitation of the 50-cm³ class to 6,25 PS and a gearbox with a maximum of 5 gears.[2]
