About this model
About the Adler MB 201
The Adler MB 201 is a distinct 1954–1956 MB model, not an alternative name for the MB 200. The MB 201 has an air-cooled 199 cc single-cylinder two-stroke with around 10.5 hp, whereas the MB 200 is a 195 cc twin. Both use the modular MB cycle parts, but their engines, performance and identification are materially different.
The MB 201 combines a Bing carburettor, four gears, wet multi-plate clutch and chain drive with the MB range’s characteristic leading-link front fork. It is a classic lightweight tourer, not a sporting twin. When buying, check the model designation, engine and frame numbers, and cylinder configuration; “Adler 200” in an advert is too vague. Preserve original parts where possible and focus a test ride on a smooth crankshaft, clean shifting, correct ignition and brake operation.

Before you buy
What to check before buying
- Check compression, crankshaft noise and exhaust smoke from the single-cylinder two-stroke; ask about premix lubrication and rebuild history.
- Inspect the Bing carburettor, fuel tap and tank for dirt, leaks and reliable cold starting.
- Check the four-speed gearbox, wet multi-plate clutch and chain drive for slip, noise and full engagement of every gear.
- Check the 6V system, battery, charging voltage and earth points for reliable lighting and ignition.
- Inspect the leading-link fork, rear suspension and drum brakes for play, leaks, wear and even operation.
