This is the Konig that Dieter Busch built for Rolf Steinhausen, Dieter used brakes of his own manufacture, the bike in the picture posted by Ian has disc brakes. Rolf won two World Championships on this bike.

Dieter Busch built a couple of BMW outfits for Dick Hawes a good few years ago, one of which is now owned by Vince Biggs. Both of them have left handed sidecars.

Dieter is still around and still working, in fact he is rebuilding the Konig chassis for Rolf Steinhousen, who has recently reaquired it, after selling it in the late 70s. Rolf is hoping to have it ready for Spa later this year. Dieter built Dick Hawes first B M W chassis about fifteen years ago. He did not build Fritz Schideggers chassis.
