Schliha Motorcycles

Manufactured by Heinrich Schlüpmann in Berlin c1924-1933

Schliha motorcycles had quite unusual two-stroke engines of their own production in capacities of 125cc to 596cc, some of which were water-cooled.

Schliha engines were supplied to RWN, Europa and probably others. He went on to build twin-cylinder 1200 and 1400cc two-stroke aviation engines, one of which was fitted to a Polish motor-glider.
