hi

Hi folks thought it was about time I registered on here. I've had a skorpion for a few years now that I doubt I'll ever part with, which led me to buy a baghira that needs a bit of work & bought a ccm r30 a few months ago.

Fair to say you like thumpers then. Welcome and what a nice selection of bikes you have. I've only ever had 2 stroke MZs but they were tough little beasties.

Hi from another newbie!

I've had loads of two stroke MZ's in the past and always fancied a Baggie.....

Welcome - lovely machines from both two and four stroke stables there (but I am biased as I have both too).

Look forward to seeing you somewhere.

Hi and welcome. there is no need to reply twice to be noticed we got you first time. Have fun on the forum as all of us do and some great banter/advice to, which oozes passion for the single stonkers !

Ahh the joy of touch screen meets sausage fingers. Cant figure out how to delete post yet

Hi Skoprion

Can you give us a bit of insight into your spoked wheel conversion?  Are they Baggy forks/ wheels?

Would be interested.  I have a pair of FZR forks to replace the pretty rough MZ Items on my skorp, but not done anything about it yet.

I also think they look great with spoked wheels...

Welcome.

Yes welcome, great bikes. I've never actually owned an MZ, but its probably only a matter of time

[guest1973]

Andy230 the wheels ate of unknown origin, supermoto of some sort theres no cush drive so can be a bit snachy in traffic. I just measured it all up and had spacers made to suit, the only problem was the rear caliper but it was easy enough once I found a caliper (kx125) then made a new mount/torque arm. Its the best mod I've had on any bike I've had it totally transformed the handling. The grameca wheels are heavy as you probably know. Both spoked wheels are lighter than original front !

[andy230]

Yes, they weigh a ton!

Right, I am convinced!  Have been putting this off for a while. ..

Mot today. But I love that. Chinese hubs are avail able too.

Had the DR not also jus passed it's mot I would use the hubs off that!

Yes, great bikes.  Cheers and welcome! Red looks great too!
