Dresch
1929 Dresch MS 604

Dresch was a motorcycle manufacturer in Étampes, France founded by Henri Dresch in 1923. The company's products ranged from 98cc single-cylinder machines to a 750cc four-cylinder model. Dresch used proprietary engines from various suppliers including Aubier Dunne, Chaise, JAP, MAG, Stainless and Train.

Dresch was a large company producing up to 10,000 motorcycles per year. The Second World War ended production in 1939. This prevented Dresch from launching its planned Baltimore model, a 350cc single with shaft drive. Dresch never resumed production after the war, but the prototype Baltimore was eventually shown at an exhibition in 1948.
