    The legendary design ‘White Mars’ by engineer Claus Frazenburger designed in 1920, for the company ‘Mars’, made him instantly famous and was kept on a pedestal since then. His designed motor bike is also available in red and green colours, apart from the white shown here.In 1873 Paul Reissmann founded the company ‘Mars’ for the simple production of simpler things like cast iron stoves engine driven sirens etc. It was only in 1903 that he began with the production of motorcycles and smaller cars. In 1923-24 the company came under economical strain due to inflation, so John and Karl Mueller took over the ownership of the plant and the Mars machines were sold under the name ‘MA’.

    Not sure how ride-able the bike is, but as a design it suits the bill for a stylish looking bike!
