wow, pretty little bike. I like the front fairing alot, do you think that little space is for Ram air, or is it just fake ram air?

A shop near me imports MuZ bikes:  www.bikeworx.com
They currently don't have any new ones in stock... the ones I saw there last year looked low-tech compared to that cool bike you linked to.  I actually thought the NEW MuZ Traveler sport-touring bike the dealer had was a well cared for mid-80s model  :cry:   It looked more out of date then bell bottoms & pocket protectors...

Wow, that's pretty. Take the fairing off and I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

I kinda like the intro music :)  (anyone recognize it?  or is their own creation?)

oh yeah, the bike looks awesome too ;)

The one MZ motard I've seen was simply badass  :thumb:

Not that long ago the old MZ was a real joke, and now look, it's done a Skoda on us and has to be taken seriously. Not seen one of these but the touring bikes are not bad looking but still a bit heavy and "clunky" with it.

Okay can anyone translate German, I am not sure if that is the language.  But it does look like it.  That bike is f'n awesome.  Would love to find one locally, if I could afford it. :nana:

Oooh a 1000cc parallel twin.  I can only imagine the deep exhaust note coming from those 2 big pistons :thumb:
