The Newest MZ model is the 1000s featuring a novel 1000 cc DOHC parallel twin designed and built by MZ. The 1000s is a sport-tourer by design, but has received very good marks for handling. The 1000s' unique engine is exceptionally compact for its displacement and rumors exist of a planed super-charged version, perhaps possessing 50 percent more power than the standard 1000s' already potent 110 horsepower (82 kW). The range includes a naked (unfaired) version and a full tourer with luggage, higher handlebars and lower footpegs for comfort. Both of these are retuned, with less outright horsepower than the 'S', but with more torque.
