Daimler Reitwagen color drawing 1885 DE patent 36423

By Gottlieb Daimler [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons*

Replica of a Daimler motorcycle made in 1885. It is regarded the first motorcycle with an internal combustion engine. The original motorcycle was destroyed in a fire but some of its drawings remained. The replica was built in Sweden in 1971. It looks like the original motorcycle apart from the engine.
