Münch (motorcycles)
Münch was a German motorcycle manufacturer which, during the 1960s, produced the Mammoth, a four-cylinder motorcycle using an NSU car engine.
Hugo Wilson wrote of the founder Friedl Münch:
Limited production began in 1966. The 'Mammoth' name was later dropped due to copyright reasons.
Early history
Friedl Münch began his career as a mechanic and engine tuner in the late 1940s, working especially with Horex motorcycles. The Horex factory noted the success of his home-tuned racers, and offered Münch a job in their competition department.
When Horex ceased motorcycle manufacture in 1956, Friedl Münch purchased the remaining stocks of motorcycles and spares, and sold his own race-tuned Horex cafe racers from his workshop in Altenstadt, Germany.
Early Mammoths
Machines were hand-built to order from Münch's workshop in Nieder-Florstadt, Friedberg, West Germany.
Friedl Münch was given a commission to build in 1966 a special for Jean Murit, a famous French former sidecar road-racer, who was then-President of the BMW Club of France and organiser of the Chamois Rally, a summertime motorcyclists' gathering at high altitude in the Alps.
