Victoria Bergmeister
 Date of Manufacture: 1954 Engine Size: 350CC The V35 Bergmeister was the first post-war four stroke to be developed and marketed by Victoria. The Bergmeister was announced in 1951 but was not released until 1953 along with a new Aero model. The strong V-Twin with a four speed transmission had a powerful driveline and was seen quite often hauling a sidecar. The unique crankcase was large enough to house the carburetor, dynamo, battery and ignition components making for a very tidy engine compartment. The Bergmeister was a financial burden to the company but it was a well accepted motorcycle. Unfortunately it carried a high price tag due to high development costs and when it came right down to it, it was only a 350. The Bergmeister almost bankrupted the company. In 1958 the company merged with DKW 1967 Yamaha YCS1 Adler M200 Ariel Square Four Benelli Tornado BMW R27 BMW R51 BMW R51/3 BMW R75/5 BSA Gold Star Ducati 750S Ducati 851 SP1 Ducati Monza Ducati Pantah Ducati Sebring Garelli Mosquito Harley-Davidson H-D XLCR 61ci Hercules Wankel Honda 305 Dream Indian Boardtracker Indian Chief Innocenti Lambretta IZH Planeta Sport Jawa OHC Kawasaki Mach III Mars Stella Matchless G80 CS Moto Guzzi Eldorado Moto Morini MV Agusta Nimbus with Bender sidecar.
