Its 342cc single-cylinder engine produces 14 horsepower at 3500 RPM, providing sufficient power for the roads of its time, with a top speed of 100 km/h. The engine is known for its reliability and ease of maintenance. A four-speed gearbox offers versatile gearing for diverse riding conditions. Ergonomically, the R 35 offers a comfortable, upright riding position suitable for both short commutes and longer rides. The cartridge front suspension enhances ride quality, while the expanding drum brake provides stopping power consistent with the technology of the era. This motorcycle is geared towards vintage motorcycle enthusiasts who appreciate the simplicity and robustness of pre-war machines. It delivers a glimpse into a time when motorcycles were primarily functional vehicles, offering a direct and engaging riding experience focused on practicality and historical value.
