Zündapp was a serious German motorcycle manufacturer started in 1917 in Nuremberg by simply Fritz Neumeyer, together with the Friedrich Krupp AG as well as the machine tool manufacturer Thiel underneath the name "Zünder- und Apparatebau G. m. b. H. " as a maker of detonators (Zünder- und Apparatebau will be German for Igniter and also Apparatus). In 1919, as the demand pertaining to weapons parts declined immediately after WWI, Neumeyer became the sole proprietor with the company, and two years later he diversified into the construction of motorcycles.Following WWII, Zündapp expanded into the microcar, moped and Scooter (street motorcycle) markets. The company collapsed inside 1984.Zuendap. biz markets markets cycle and electric bicycles while using the Zundapp name and company logo. while Zuendapp.com markets "enduro-sport" motorcycles under the Zundapp brand.

The first Zündapp motorcycle was the particular model Z22 in 1921. This was the Motorrad für Jedermann ("motorcycle for everyone"), a simple, reliable design that was manufactured in large series. Zündapp's history of weighty motorcycles began in 1933 with all the K-series. The "K" refers to the type of drivetrain that these products used, Kardanantrieb, meaning enclosed driveshaft using two universal joints. Zündapp introduced the enclosed crankcase (then the novelty). The series encompassed products from 200 to 300 cc displacement and was a major success, increasing Zündapp's market share in Germany from 5% inside 1931 to 18% inside 1937.The Zündapp KS600, first released in 1938, had a 28 h . p . (21 kW) flat opposed twin cylinder engine with overhead valves displacing 597 closed circuit (36. 4 cu in). The KS600 was often along with a Steib sidecar, the BW38 (Beiwagen 1938). The BW38, fitted with the B1 (Footwear no. 1) sidecar body was produced between 1938 along with 1941 and supplied exclusively to the Wehrmacht. While the KS600 was discontinued and finally replaced by the purpose-built KS750, its motor was to become the only remnant to live beyond the destruction regarding war. When Zündapp returned to motorcycle production within the late 1940s, it chose to reuse the KS600's motor to power the KS601 along with few modifications.The Zündapp K800 had unit construction, flat-four engines with the whole length drive (a format adopted by Honda for the Gold Wing in 1974) and were the only 4-cylinder machines used because of the German armed forces throughout WWII.

Via 1931 Ferdinand Porsche and Zündapp developed the prototype Automobile für Jedermann ("car for everyone"), which was the first-time the name Volkswagen ended up being used. Porsche preferred the 4-cylinder toned engine, but Zündapp used any water-cooled 5-cylinder radial motor. In 1932 three prototypes have been running. All three cars were lost over the war, the last in any 1945 Stuttgart bombing raid.From 1936 to 1938 Zündapp developed the KKS500 model. This was the first Zündapp that has a foot gear change, and 170 examples were being built. From 1940 onward Zündapp produced over 18, 000 units of the actual Zündapp KS 750. This is a sidecar outfit using a driven side wheel and a locking differential, supplied to the German Wehrmacht.Zündapp also made aircraft engines like 9-092, which was used with light aircraft, including the Brunswick LF-1 Zaunkönig (1942) belly initio trainer aircraft.

After WWII this company transitioned to smaller models, notably the "Bella" engine scooter, which was a relatively heavy machine for the type. In 1951 Zündapp released the last of its heavy motorbike models, but one of its most well-known: the KS601 (the actual "green elephant") which has a 598 cc two-cylinder powerplant. From 1957 to 1958 the business also produced the Zündapp Janus microcar.In 1958 the organization moved from Nuremberg to be able to Munich. Subsequently, the company developed many new smaller models, discontinued the development of four-stroke engines and only produced two-stroke models. Zündapp experienced some achievement in motorsports with rider André Malherbe winning the actual 125cc European motocross championships in 1973 and once again in 1974. Initially, Zündapp scooters and mopeds sold well, but later sales dropped and in 1984 the business went bankrupt and sealed.

As soon as the bankruptcy, the entire production brand and intellectual properties has been bought by Xunda Motor Co., Tianjin, China. They produced small Zündapp bikes from 1987 till earlier 1990s. Zündapp is still operating, but makes Honda primarily based 4-stroke motorcycles and electric powered mopeds.Zündapp also had the technical collaboration with Regal Enfield (India) to construct mopeds and motorcycles. A dedicated factory has been built at Ranipet near Chennai inside the early 1980s to create small, lightweight two-stroke motorcycles to be offered with their flagship Royal Enfield Topic. Enfield launched two 50 closed circuit motorcycles first, the step-thru Silver Plus as well as the 3-speed Explorer motorcycle. Later, 175 cc Enfield Fury (depending on Zündapp KS175) was introduced to be a performance motorcycle. It had 5-speed gearbox, a hydraulic Brembo disc brake plus a sleeveless hard chromed tube barrel, all were a first on a motorcycle in that country.
