hello another newbie here, just a couple of things ! the bike is awsome i love the super moto style but coming from a fireblade to this ! i cant get used to the short gearing and it feels like it only does 2000 revs before it hits the limiter has any one tried to put a different motor in ! is there a bike with the same wheel spacing so i can have a cheap pair of off road wheels for winter fun! oh and the front end is ugly as sin (soon change that with a decent set of clocks and m-o-t legal alien headlight) pics will follow when winter allows me to give it some time off! sounds like a moan but i love it really! in the words of ali g........keep it real ..innit! any response welcome i dont see many other mz riders !

MZ do a wheel set that fits stright on. Others in this group have fitted Yamaha XT600 wheels after modification (the wheel bearing sizes are different).

As for posted speed likits, generally out of town the speed limits are 60 on A roads and 70 on the motorways. These are not always follwed howver, with speeds of up to 80mph being generally ignored by the police on motorways.
