Vintage Vibes: Unleash the Rarity- 1939 Eysink Jubileum 125

Despite having humble beginnings in the early 20th century, the Eysink motorcycle firm quickly grew to prominence as a symbol of innovation and excellence in the motorcycle industry.

The Eysink motorbike was made in the Netherlands. Eysink received considerable acclaim for its machines, which found utility in a variety of applications, including service with the Dutch Army during World War 1.

The 125 Jubileum was the company’s most famous model, but they also produced twins and singles with displacements of 250cc, 365cc, 425cc, and 500cc.

The Eysink brothers from Amersfoort, Holland, created the eponymous motorcycle marque by starting out manufacturing bicycles.
