1967 – Thanks to the outstanding results, the racing department grew and the team strengthened was better organized and was assisted professionally.
The new look, gutsier and meaner, centered around the red fuel tank with chromed details and more attention was paid to esthetics underlining the rare beauty of these motorcycles.
These motorcycles were developed exclusively for victory, the whole look further enhanced by the sand cast aluminum combustion system, with a finned cylinder head, initially without anti-vibratory spacers.
A modernized tubular single spar with bolted double cradle frame was introduced with an attractive triangular structure housing the large air filter box.
The front drive train, already enriched by the now familiar 28 mm long travel Ceriani and new aluminum hubs made by Puch was aided by a long travel steering shock absorber.
On the rear, rounded off by a fully enclosed chain cover made in light steel, Ceriani and Girling shock absorbers were mounted, depending on course requirements and engine capacities.
To maintain continuity the chromed mudguards with the yellow interior were retained rear one mounted low on the wheel.
Four capacity engines were developed, namely: 50, 98, 125 and 166cc, each with improved chassis and internal mechanical components.

On the three higher engine capacities a new split silencer system was fitted, which had no equal in the field world-wide.
This experiment was tested for an entire season, but was unsuccessful and the Puch technicians had to swiftly retrace their steps.
The Austrian engines always distinguished themselves for their extreme power, unfortunately not always able to be utilized to the fullest due to the unresponsiveness at low revolutions.
Few riders were able to ride full throttle at all times and not all tracks allowed such reckless driving, Puch's performance had to therefore be developed in another direction, but despite this there were still many prestigious finishes.
The Puch's weak point of lack of power at low revolutions, showed itself particularly at the race at the Valleys of Bergamo. On this occasion Puch competed with a fully representative team: a 50cc – Stefan Pachernegg, a 100cc – Gianfranco Saini, two 125cc – Walter Leitgeb and Werner Wabnig and a 170cc – Johann Sommerauer.
As always the difficulty of the course took its toll and of the 125 competitors at the starting line, only 67 finished.
The 50cc of the Austrian Stefan Pachernegg was the only one in the team to cross the finish line in 32^nd place.
As in the previous year they had better luck at the Six Days at Zakopane (17/22 September) where the Austrian team quickly forgot their previous misfortunes and distinguished themselves by winning not just one but two categories; Heribert Dietrich on a 50cc and Walter Leitgeb on a 175cc.
