Help us preserve the legacy
Shared history, collective memory
The story of Royal Nord is not just found in archives or blueprints; it lives in the garages, photo albums, and memories of the people who rode, repaired, and built these iconic machines.
As we work to document the definitive history of the Hufkens brothers and their mechanical contributions to Belgium, we invite you to be part of the journey. We are looking for authentic materials to help us complete the Royal Nord puzzle.
How You Can Contribute:
Photographs & Media: Do you have vintage photos of Royal Nord motorcycles or mopeds in action? Perhaps a family photo from the 1950s or 60s featuring a GT50 or Super Vedette?
Technical Documents: We are seeking original manuals, brochures, parts lists, or engineering sketches that can help us verify historical specifications.
Personal Stories: Did you or a family member work at the Hasselt factory? Do you have stories about the export era to the Belgian Congo? Your anecdotes provide the "soul" to our technical history.
Vehicle Identification: If you own a rare or early model, sharing serial numbers and engine details helps us map the production timeline of the brand.
New Models & Updates: If you’d like to stay close to what’s next for Royal Nord, you can opt to receive occasional updates on future developments.
Our Goal: To create a digital archive that honors the Belgian mechanical spirit and serves as a resource for collectors and historians worldwide.
