pretty quick Parade, he's changing gear within 500rpm of the redline, great to see these bikes out and being used for what they are designed for, but no need to send one down the road on its side!
Ik heb Hans De Wit al een paar keer tegengekomen met de ECHTE König, laatst nog in Gedinne, Hans is nu 78 jaar.... ongelooflijk. De sound van die 2-takt boxer.
....and rank bad track design killed him, causing König to give up road racing....such a shame on both counts. Who knows how far both of them would have gone?
As well as 3-time Endurance World champion rider Christian Leon, of France, although he never completed a full GP season with it (no budget). He did win a few International races in France on board the Konig. He once told me that Kim Newcombe deserved a lot of credit for riding this bike so well.
actually that patons are incredible fast for a fourstroke two cylinder vs a watercooled twostroke four cylinder........ and two times with passing them you came out of your "comfortzone".
Yes it is. It's an watercooled, four cylinder two stroke boxer motor from the berlin/germany based boat engine manufacturer König. Sry for my bad english. German is my mother tongue.
Still an amazing bike after all these years RIP Kim Newcombe
NOTHING beats a 2 stroke NOTHING !!!
RIP Kim, he was the best
That is some kind of Bike! And Rider!! Well impressed with that performance! Brilliant!!
Diese Maschine mit dem 500ccm 4-Zyl-2-Takt Boxer König-Bootsmotor geht richtig gut.
What a beautiful sound on throttle.
Looks like the marshall and other officials had plenty of Chimay!
Уникальный мотоцикл, со своей харизмой. И всё благодаря Kim
Kim Newcombes Konig made Agostini MV look like it was going backwards RIP Kim
I can recommend the book of his biography: "Kim - The Kiwi on The KoniG" by Tim Hanna. Greetings froM New Zealand.
what a rider and what a bike tops
Almost like he was racing against mopeds
Beautiful music
It gives me the chills, in a good way. It's like watching "Silver dream racer" for the first time when I was a kid.
What an engine!
.. he just has no competition. He uncompromisingly takes all ...
This looks to be a parade most riders going steady on there expensive classics though it is nice to here that stroker giving the business.

Magnificent! Thank you!
blipping throttle brilliantly, i love it!
In a class of its own !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sounds great there, but it sounds much better from the spectator's viewpoint.
Wasn't it that great Kiwi rider Kim Newcombe who unlocked the potential of the Konig engine?

Kim Newcombe made the Konig what you see here He took it to second place in the 1973 500cc World Championship behind Phil Read

IT IS a König boat engine, from König Motorenbau Berlin.
I was wondering what that big gage was then I realized that,s the tach it starts at 6000rpm
Kroeber tacho.

Yes Belguim.
He's not hanging around is he

Is this machine of a larger capacity than those he’s riding with? He’s eating them up like they’re short of a gear.
What a rocket!😮
人間はどんなにしても１００生きられんけど、５０年前のレーサーがこんなに走るなんて🤪凄い

Dir König Maschine verbläst alle😂.
Beautiful machine...who said kiwis cant fly?
What's the top speed at the straight?
The best

Ha ha!!! He passed 15 guys in one straight!!!!!!
eu assistindo o video e minha mulher perguntando se estou com dor no pescoço por balança-lo junto a pista.
Wow 💪😈
Was the green bike a paton?
I think it was too ... plus can you hear it behind I think the Konig may have woken him (or her) up!
Great footage, is it you onboard Stuart?
I wish! I merely supplied the camera and uploaded the footage, the rider is a talented young chap from Germany.
@@stuartsharpin6536 Cheers Stuart.
Man oh man to know all who lye before you are but children and you bare the beast....
Boat engined?
Yes it is. It's an watercooled, four cylinder two stroke boxer motor from the berlin/germany based boat engine manufacturer König. Sry for my bad english. German is my mother tongue.
