Deal done ..now hooked on mzs lol

 

That's the spirit . Wait till you see what's inside the headlight . Looks like something out of an old telephone exchange. Everything is just so different . And that's the joy of the MZ . Be very careful with the brakes , especially in damp weather . They can grab so fiercely that they will have you off .

Yep , the horizontal speedo that collects a pool of water and when the bike is stationary it moves like a false rev counter powered by vibration . Crankcases cast in a " Goosebumps " finish is another favourite along with the massive silencer and bracket . It's all good Communist fun .

But on the other hand you get an old engine thats slow and not very fuel efficient compared to today's variants!


Catch 22 really :lol:
