[@fatrat137]

I can't get over how good the reception is on that mic

[@Arturexiusz]

that exhaust sound is so crisp I can't believe it!

[@aowens6260]

I think mz was the first to come up with the 2 stroke expansion chamber.

[@edradtke287]

I think that was DKW

[@aowens6260]

@@edradtke287 just double checked on Wikipedia, so there is a link to DKW.. but looks like I was right.. mz was the first.. apparently, the guy who came up with it, his dad worked for dkw.. but who knows.. ppl sometimes try to claim the glory for stuff they didn't do.. but lots of people think it was the Japanese.. when in fact it was the Germans.

[@toddrudavsky5700]

I had one when I was younger, I think it was a 1974, mine had chrome fenders and a huge cover over the left side clutch/ primary drive chain. Loved it, put many miles on it on my grandfather s 100 acre farm.

[@edjacobson8480]

In those days I was growing up not growing old like I am now. Love those old bikes.

[@davelollback6555]

Love it! the exhaust note reminds me of my fathers DKW 125 which I still have and now more so really need to get going it has the earl's fork front end steel guards he used to commute on it as well as race enduro still running original sprockets magura grips levers steel guards etc he used to put a rack on it ride out to the bush with a jerry can of fuel do the enduro bolt the rack back on ride home one event he had to go out and rescue blokes who ran out of fuel they had smaller tanks so yep bolted on the rack and out he went, thanks again Ken for a truly inspirational video would so love to get over there to meet you and check the awesome work you guys do.

[@paulgrogan8032]

Beautiful classic, very Penton looking for that era*****

[@weirbrook]

MZ used to make these competition bikes on a shoestring budget, I had two road bikes and loved them and would love to find another one. If you check out a book called stealing speed it will tell you how amazing MZ were and it’s sad they are no longer produced.

[@jaysongraft3627]

Such a really cool bike. 👍😎

[@markanthony6128]

That’s a wheelie yeah get it man 👍

[@mzzybex6754]

Good machines, I still own an mz, but the 250 etz is a bit younger. 🙂

[@ianmangham4570]

They use to make MZ and Simson front and rear wheels interchangeable back in the late 70s early 80s especially the Simson 50cc

[@tommyvercetti6878]

It's called Simson.

[@edradtke287]

I remember them selling the street trail version in the back of cycle magazine around 1975 for $495

[@joesbuell]

Sounds good

[@Footygodsarewatching]

Nice old bike but my CR 125 M1 1974 Would more than likely have the wood on it.

[@ricardofigueiredo3492]

De onde saiu este ser vivo!

[@awerewolf8594]

NDR was better two stroke than JAWA. But about reability, this engine is much easy and better than Japanese two stroke where is about power and allways staying on gas station

[@ktm8848]

can someone explain how this east german performs compared to the japaneses

[@mzzybex6754]

The Japanese stole the technology from mz.

Ernst Degner at the 1961 World Championship race in Sweden. At that time, he revealed the fantastic MZ inventions of MZ chief developer Walter Kaaden to Suzuki to improve the performance of two-stroke engines.

[@L2fish]

Hard to believe those things won anything! And then came Suzuki

[@Nudnik1]

Husqvarna beat all until 1973 Suzuki

Suzuki stole the MZ technology. Google Ernst Degner.

You know how to start a video every fucking time!!!!!!!!!

[@joethebike8323]

I toured Europe on a 450 Honda back in 1969 and stopped in West Berlin to go through Checkpoint Charley for a one day visit to the MZ sales office in the East to enquire about buying one of these ISDT replicas and have it sent back to Australia. Typically communist, the sales rep brushed me off and could not be bothered with a non German speaker.

Old school reliable,slow but she'll get ya there.
