NSU 301 T
The NSU 301 T motorcycle was produced from 1929 to 1930. It was the first version to be produced as a touring model, with flat tank and side-controlled valves. The engine originally had encapsulated valves, variable supplementary lubrication, a compression spring saddle, footrests instead of running boards, wired-on tyres and a flat aluminium exhaust silencer. The model had a 3-speed manual gearbox and a gear-driven oil pump. In late 20s NSU offered several ?T” (Tourist) models, single-cylinder four-stroke machines with fuel tanks placed under the frame. They were: 201T (199 cc, 4,5 HP, top speed: 65 kph, 12900 units built in 1929-1930), 251T (249 cc, 6 HP, top speed: 75 kph, 400 units built in 1928-1929), and 301T, 9300 units of 301T were built in 1929-1930. The 501T joined the family in 1929, too. |
