if this is true then it is a shame really as i quite like the look of the big singles and quite fancy one. don't suppose it is a good idea now

Hi

Also here:-

Normally I would expect someone to take them on, but the credit situation at the moment might well stop that.

All the best

i hope some one does take them on, its a bit of a shame with the whole euro emmission bollocks, but there 1000cc parallel twins are ace.

the thing is with mz the name association is either a love or hate thing,

i love em, but lots of people wouldnt touch them because of the name

I think alot of people like the idea of the new MZ's but that doesn't translate into actually swopping money for one. I've seen about two of the singles on the road and not one of the big twins, ever.

fair point - there are no MZ dealers anywhere near me & i live in a town which has two honda dealers. guess what i own.

surprised to see they only employ 40 people though.

Where I work used to sell MZs, we've got a second hand one in at the moment.

Thats a damn shame, they were just starting to pull themselves back together with the newer 4t's. Anyone know if Kanuni is still making the old 'uns under license??
