Sorry about that yawl! I open this up and I could see em fine! Big bro is getting this stuff under control! What can't they do. Pics only seen by a member. Anyway this is the old girl! Very Impressed with it. Its got a 659cc Yama Raptor motor, 5 spd, she will pass about anything on the superslab! No BS! But it has to have the best gas and floggin it gets me less MPG than the Hayabusa. Fun to ride and handles like its on rails. Again sorry for the dumb pic and thanks for the info on it. I was told they could still be purchased! But who would want to go thru that much trouble with all the mottards out there.

  • Are we having fun yet?
IIRC, MZ is no longer importing to the USA. 
Their website still lists a US Distributor, but they don't have a US website and their email address for the US is us_costumerservice@hotmail.com
A Hotmail address for a US Distributor is not exactly confidence inspiring in my book.

On the slightly brighter side, the single cylinder MZ's use Yamaha engines, so you should be able to get parts for the engine... if you can figure out a Yamaha model that uses a comparable motor.  Might be a little bit of a problem with the 660 since Yamaha doesn't import any 660 bikes, but Raptor quad motor parts might be common.  Otherwise, all parts would have to be imported.

Wacky? Yea those do! Lights I thing but they are very functional, Did you know MZ won the Isle of man 6 yrs in a row with their 125 & 250 2 strokers. They actually taught the Japan folk, Suzuki mainly how to perfect the 2 strokers and have em last. Dissected after the fall of Berlin.
