I'm often asked, where one can buy a real Kettenkrad. To buy a Kettenkrad is not an easy job but here is one source, where you can start your search:

Milweb, run by Nigel Hay, is the biggest marketplace for all kinds of historic military vehicles. Here are sometimes Kettenkrads for sale.

Have a look at "Classifieds". Most Kettenkrads were offered in the "Motorcycles & Bicycles" section.

The website is well worth a visit if you are looking for any historic military vehicle to buy.
