Tempo 150cc
Norway made a Tempo from a Sachs engine/transmission. It was a hard
tail model, maroon in color and quite pretty. I saw one on a motorcycle
tour in 1998, although I don't know when it was made.

Tempo
I lived in a small town close to Sandnes where the Tempo factory used
to be. The company was called Jonas Oeglaend as near as I can spell it
without the three special Norwegian letters. Their machines were lightweight,
simple, clean and very well finished. Tempo has a very enthusiatic following
in Norway among guys of my age (baby boomers). I fixed up a 1940s Tempo
Villiers at the farm I worked at in my teens. The farmer still has it.
Maybe I should ask him for it.
