Moser, type Monza
(with pendulum sidecar), 1929
This extraordinary combination is much more than a classic 1929 motorbike – it is a testament to decades of mechanical evolution and individual craftsmanship. Originally delivered as a Moser machine, the vehicle was significantly developed and modernised by the designer Hänni. At its heart is the “Monza” engine, which was not installed until 1936. This is most likely the last drive unit produced by Moser with OHC valve control. Here, the camshaft is located directly in the cylinder head and is driven by a chain – a highly modern and powerful design for its time, which was also refined as a custom build. After the Second World War (1946), the chassis underwent extensive modernisation by Hänni to improve ride comfort and stability: installation of a modern front wheel guide,conversion of the originally rigid frame to suspension, pendulum sidecar – a Hänni design that allows the motorcycle to lean into corners while the sidecar remains stable.
