The Puch M 50 was a motorized two-wheeler from Puch-Werke , which was produced in various versions from 1967 to 1976. It was driven by a single-cylinder two-stroke engine with a four- or six-speed gearbox with foot-operated gearbox, which was either fan-cooled or air-cooled . The manufacturer adapted the design even more to the public's wish that the mopeds should look like "real motorcycles".
