Skorpion Manual??

Postby manxie » Sun Mar 20, 2016 11:49 am

Hi fella`s. Just bought a Skorpion Sport, is there a Haynes manual or the likes available to purchase? I`ve had a look round but I can`t seem to find one? I could do with an owners manual (seat removal etc) and a workshop manual to do servicing etc? Also, what web sites are the best for Skorpion parts Thanks. :smt023

Buy an SZR660 Haynes manual, the closest thing to the Skorpion that`s available as far as I know, or an XTZ660, kinda same thing motor wise apart from the gearbox ratios.

This forum is a great resource, use the SEARCH function, you`ll find all you need to know regarding general servicing and much more. :wink:

+1 on mincehead's reply, there's posts on here on changing oil and checking clearances and the SZR660 manual is good, I bought mine on ebay but it only is suitable for the engine. I also downloaded this MZ Skorpion manual in PDF format :

With a bit of care, advice from Graham's, the forum and both manuals its not too bad .....Hope the link helps, the image quality is not the best

I'm wondering if its possible to get a copy of the manual. I just got a Mz that has quite the history and I just would like to have torques and general directions. Den sent one to another Mz Skorpion owner. Hope this is still a good link. thanks
