          They had one of the replicas at Wauseon years ago and was riding it around...not to impressive since it only goes like 5 MPH...not to mention the training wheels.......

            Bill Eggers is a very talented and diversified craftsman whatever he does will be first class. That being said Daimler and motorcycle in the same sentence are a contradiction of terms. Gotlieb Daimler might agree as documented history explains, it was his intent to build a test stand for a gas motor. He ultimately became a world class auto manufacture not a motorcycle manufacturer, what does that tell you?

            Go for it Bill I look forward to seeing the finished product.

              Thanks Robert. If I were to ride that across the US the event would have to be called the Cannon crawl... not cannonball :-)

                OK, I'll ask the obvious...how much for one of those babies?

                  They made a group of those back in the '70's for MB dealers to display. If I remember correctly the original was lost in a fire.
