Super Sabre factory scrambler
Factory-built Zundapp Scramber


Notes:

Zundapp Super Sabres were popular bikes to turn into scramblers and race. Here is an article that outlines how to do the conversion.

I bought a rare NOS factory scrambler front fender and an electric start engine from the same guy. I also bought NOS fork legs and a box of NOS parts - most are for the Super Sabre, some for the Norma. I'm trying to talk a fellow Zundapp enthusiast out of a rear scrambler fender but he is resisting.

I plan to make this a scrambler. I'll swap the internals from the electric start engine to keep the original cases and numbers. Add the fenders. I'm on the look out for the factory scrambler header to raise the exhaust up. Then put on some knobby tires and rip.
