The IWL Troll

This next one is the IWL Troll1. This is a 1963 model. MZ ES150 engines were put into these. They were converted to fan cooled. The fan is driven from a belt on the left hand side I the crank.

This along with my own black and cream 1964 version was bought off eBay Deutchland. Kurt collected both up for us and we went in a van to pick them up from Seigen. The two Trolls travelled together to the 2008 East European Rally. They prove themselves as able tourers. Into Melton Mowbray they cruised at 60mph as the engines had really freed up after 100 miles of travelling.

There is a small bit of work to get this one back on the road.

    Like myself, Mark enjoyed doing the Round Britain Rally. In this event there is a get together for the start, known as the A.R.S.E. Two years ago Mark turned up on this machine and I had the honour of returning to his home and a tour round his garage.
