Description

I found this Danish 1947 Nimbus in Florida about a year ago. We completely disassembled every part and rebuilt every system to proper working order. I believe every part works and will continue to give great service to whomever is the lucky owner of this little gem. We believe it to have original paint!
Do a little research and you’ll find the Nimbus to be the cheapest of the collectable inline 4’s which are the hottest thing on the market! Keep this for a few years and enjoy riding an investment instead of seeing it in your bank account stagnant. We recently rode this bike to the Barber Vintage Festival in Birmingham which is about 150 miles. She performed perfectly!
Nimbus has a few interesting features. Most notably the exposed valve train with bevel driven overhead cam. You can see them move as the engine runs! They also have the world’s first telescopic fork just before the BMW’s! Check out the frame, ts spring steel strap which is why its riveted instead of using a weld process.
Everyone who has ridden this has fallen in love with its comfortable ride, ood looks, nd ease of running. Perfect for cruising the neighborhood or heading to local bike nights or shows. The number of interest will not disappoint!
