The NSU Quick 50 was a light motorcycle manufactured by NSU Motorenwerke AG from 1963 to 1965. It was the last motorcycle built by NSU.
The frame of the Quick 50 was developed from the frame previously used in the NSU Quickly TT. The engine differed from the Quickly engine in stroke, displacement, and compression ratio, and delivered power through a four-speed transmission.
The Quick 50 engine did not have pedals. As a result, the Quick 50 was not considered to be a moped in countries whose legal definition of a moped included the presence of pedals, as Germany's did.
9,323 Quick 50 motorcycles were built before NSU stopped manufacturing motorcycles in 1965.
