Built around DKW's sport motorcycle platform, the 1933 DKW Block 300 features a 292 cc (17.8 cu in) air-cooled single cylinder, two-stroke configuration. Internal engine geometry specifies a bore and stroke of 74.0 x 68.0 mm (2.9 x 2.7 inches).
On the scales, the Block 300 measures 123 kg (271 lbs) wet (curb). Rider ergonomics and chassis geometry center around a 1,290 mm (50.8 in) wheelbase engineered for quick, flickable steering geometry. The 12.5-liter (3.3 US gal) fuel tank paired with a rated consumption of 3.5 L/100 km provides an estimated theoretical range of roughly 357 km (222 miles) between fill-ups.
