Nothing much to add other than it seems a fair price, maybe with a daytime MOT it might sell a little easier if it's possible for you to get one on it. At least then the buyer can tax it straight away, GLWS.

Cheers at least i know im not too optimistic on the price then, MOT could be an issue as i would need to find a van from somewhere to get it there as its a bit far to push it  May try and get it ready for one over the weekend and see if i can figure something out. |

Haha, don't take what I said as gospel by any means. MZ's seem to be appreciating alot more now so for 600 sheets it wouldn't seem unreasonable to me if I was after one, if it wouldn't be much work to get a general MOT then that might help the sale further, having it restricted to day use only might put a few people off so if a normal MOT could be applied then you'd probably widen your audience up a bit. If it was a 125 I'd be quite tempted as I'm sure the GN is knocking years off my life through frustration! Dam my lack of a full license!  |

Hey guys, dont have much time free at the minute as swmbo has decided i need to get cracking on the DIY rather than hiding in the garage. If someone wanted this then i would take £500 for the lot. Come and take it away and dont look over your shoulder to see me crying  |

Yep thats the guy, has a rather large collection of bikes and is a really nice sound guy. We must have been chatting for at least an hour when he came to get the MZ. He did mention about the trike then actually. Quite a cool little thing and we agreed we both have a liking for 'unusual' bikes |

I thought it was the same, wasn't sure if he'd nabbed a photo from somewhere or whether it was his bike. ;D There's a TS125 on eBay about 5 minutes from me which I'm watching, been laid up a while so duff tyres, engine turns over (supposidly) and needs a bit of a clean up.........Very tempted as pay day is just before the auction ends. I don't know anyone that's owned an MZ so not too sure how good they are? Be nice to get something to replace the GN as it's dying on it's ar*e. |

Go for it if you can mate. Prices seem to be going up at the minute. Quite easy to get parts for which was a suprise. They are certainly not refined but are basic and reliable. Could leave mine for ages in the garage and she would still start second kick! Considering she never got further than a trundle round my front garden to clear the cobwebs out i was quite amazed! If she had been a 125 so i could ride her then i would have kept it. Oh well, i have the trike to keep me busy now. Does that still count as retro being an A reg donor bike?

That's helped, cheers gent. I'll see how the bidding goes as I've just moved that Chinese bike on & my better half isn't keen on me 'replacing' it ;D Trike definately counts in my book, growing to like them more & more. |
