Who is able to recognise the engine from this small picture?

Which manufacturer? Which model? Construction period? For one point.

I would like to try something for such difficult puzzles:
As long as there is only the small picture, two points are awarded.
When the change into the black hole is imminent, there will be more pictures and and the score is reduced to one point.
I am curious to see how do you like it.

All I know about motorcycles is that most of them seem to have two wheels.

But I like the idea of two points offered, and half-price beyond the sell-by date!

Overhead camshaft, I guess;....did the manufacturers also build single-cylinder versions of this design?

@ FrontMan: Yes there was a closely related single-cylinder version.

@ gilescooperuk: Yes, frame and engine have the same roots.

No. FrontMan, you are dirctly looking at an overhaed-camshaft, MZ only built two-stroke engines and some experimentell wankel-engines.
