I Googled MZ 500 images and found it !!! Butchered with country gauges ? Do I win ??

[hmmmnz]

the wheels and forks are original mz items

Hello!

Jawa 350 TS??

it is indeed, i had a search on google and couldnt find it using those terms,
i don't know why the bike has jawa panels, i don't think ive even seen a jawa in new zealand,

Thank you for all your pictures and how to

Saludos/Regards,
Manuel

no worries on the how to's,
ill do a fork seal replacement one, may be tomorrow, and if anyone wants any other, then let me know, the bike is so simple its a pleasure to work on apart from the oil change.. thats just stupid


ok what model mz500 was it???

[manumensa]

Front spoke wheel 19" and rear spoke wheel 16".

MZ 500 Country??

[hmmmnz]

nope
same wheel sizes, different exhaust (original on the bike though)

[manumensa]

MZ 500 Silver Star?

I can be wrong..but the exhaust isn´t original from MZ factory
and the box swing arm I think only Country and Silver Star.

MZ 500 Hmmmnz?

[hmmmnz]

:?:

MZ 500 Silver Star?

I can be wrong..but the exhaust isn´t original from MZ factory
and the box swing arm I think only Country and Silver Star.

MZ 500 Hmmmnz?

its an original exhaust from mz that came out on the bike from the factory,
its not the country (wrong exhaust) or the silverstar (wrong clocks)

ill give you a clue its a sub model of the saxon

[DAVID THOMPSON]

MuZ 500 R Fun 1992 can't find a picture any where

or a silver star and parts from a Jawa the tank looks like MuZ 500 R Fun but its engine was black
dave

[hmmmnz]

close but still no cigar
the tank, seat, side panels and headlight are jawa 350 twin sport items,
all the rest is mz (still don't know why its got jawa bits on it?? )
heres a pic in its original guise

[manumensa]

MZ Voyager?

I associate this model with the sidecar.

[hmmmnz]

yep thats the one
a voyager less the side car, or a saxon tour with wire wheels
its a bit of an odd ball
well done

I see mine in the discussion. It is a 94 with the tank chromed and painted. Stock otherwise. Now it is taken apart hoping for a new lease on life (engine rebuild) Have all the parts, but crank is iffy. Will put the 40 mm dellorto and a cam on it if I get the crank sorted out... Love me some Silver Stars! I noticed that Comanche posted a picture of a nicely painted red and white silverstar.

Hey Nozz. That is a MZ regulation factory model, the Red Star 500 Classic. I believe they started in 1997, as all the pics I've found of Red Stars were 1997 models. Also there is a Green Star (Euro only). Super rare model. Both the red and green stars would have looked much better IMHO w. the all-black seat.
