Lucas indicators,side reflectors, small tank, high bars ... apart from the MZ rear light ( rather than the Lucas one seen in the US) it's a US spec bike. If I had some money I would add it to the collection!

Oh yea we saw that thing, and we thought you brits should have some cool bike to inspire y'all ...

Oh well, I have no clue abotu the 250's so I was asleep @ the switch, howeber in India we used to have these 250 CZ/Jawa/Yezdi things that looked like it.

Do these MZ's have a kick starter that flips forward and become the gear shifter ?

Cool.
