That Imme is indeed a rare bike.
Single sided front & rear fork, both monoshock, interchangeable wheels and the exhaust pipe is part of the frame.

So the engine must be unsprung!!
That little bike certainly has a lot of original thinking in it.

As you might have found out already, there was also a 2 cylinder Imme of the same principle. Very few were built though!

Vincent, as you said: ‘the good old days’… It’s a understatement that nowadays the ‘old (british) motorcycles scene’ is unfortunately a ‘dying afair’ overhere. As we can see on the pictures it atracks an decreasing crowd of bold, gray haired old man (like me..) and in the end it will fade away I guess…
