MZ 1000 SF - Reliability ? Zuverlässigkeit ?

Hi,

I am French and I am interested in purchasing a used MZ 1000 SF.
My problem is that this bike has really confidential sales in France, and I cannot find any user report about :

- reliability ?
- cost of maintenance (at 10.000 kms / 20.000 kms ...)
- general quality ? Do you know any user of this bike, happy or unhappy ?
- do you know a user group / forum for MZ 1000 owner ?

MANY MANY THANKS in advance

Hallo,

Ich bin fransözich und
Ich wünschte, Informationen über die MZ 1000 SF zu haben.

Welche Zuverlässigkeit?
Welche Qualität?
Preis für die Wartung von 10.000 / 20.000 kms? (lieber 300 ? oder 600 ? ?)

Vielen Dank !!!

Bonjour!

Il y a un article dans un magazine allemand ou le 1000S a eté teste en 50.000 kilometres.
Le résultat: tr?s bon. Le contrôle des pi?ces mécaniques aprés le test a indiqué que il y n'a gu?re de usure. La moteur etait comme neuf!

Excusez-moi ma mauvais francais.

Salut, Alex

so und jetzt nochmal für die kinder, die russisch gelernt haben...

Thanks again

who knows the name the German magazine with the 50 000 kms test ???

It´s MOTORRAD.
Take also a look at page 4 (pdf - 6,69 mb)!
And last but not least look here for the onlineversion of the test.

ok I have seen the PDF thanks, i 'll try to translate important parts

the bike seems to have exhaust weakness... and sadly, the MZ I look at seems to be affected as well :

They don´t loose their hold on their prooved locksmith- design.

All that stuff at the haed and before the fork.

Terrible.

But engine (exept of vibrations), chassis and reliability have to be in good condition as far as I´ve heard.
