The NSU Quick 50 was a light motorcycle manufactured by NSU Motorenwerke AG from 1963 to 1965. It was the last motorcycle built by NSU.[1][2]
The frame of the Quick 50 was developed from the frame previously used in the NSU Quickly TT.[1] The engine differed from the Quickly engine in stroke, displacement, and compression ratio, and delivered power through a four-speed transmission.[2]
The Quick 50 engine did not have pedals. As a result, the Quick 50 was not considered to be a moped in countries whose legal definition of a moped included the presence of pedals, as Germany's did.[1]
9,323 Quick 50 motorcycles were built before NSU stopped manufacturing motorcycles in 1965.[1][2]
