The motorcycle part of the Austrian Steyr-Daimler-Puch combine, Puch introduced its first motorcycle in the early 1900s, amalgamated with Daimler in 1928 and then Steyr in 1934. Puch also built cars, commercial vehicles, and railway locomotives in its early years but these days the firm is best remembered for its pioneering Doppelkolben (twin-piston) 'split-single' two-stroke motorcycles, the first of which was developed during the 1920s. Designed by an Italian engineer, Giovanni Marcellino, this unusual engine used two pistons on a two-piece (master/slave) connecting rod, the cylinders sharing a common combustion chamber. The chief advantage of this arrangement was asymmetrical port timing, resulting in improved economy, steadier idling, and greater torque at the expense of greater complication and weight. Four-stroke models were catalogued during the 1930s but after WW2 Puch built two-strokes only, commencing with split-singles in 125, 150, 175 and 250cc capacities, and the range remained in production well into the 1960s.

This Puch SV 175 was Hans Schifferle's preferred 'go-to' bike because it was always easy to start. Purchased circa 1995, the machine was rebuilt by Helmut Lichtenberger and is very nicely presented, having covered only 1,651km since restoration. Some detailing would improve it still further. Accompanying documentation consists of a German Fahrzeugschein; an expired TüV (MoT) certificate and correspondence; and a Puch owner's manual.
