MZ/MuZ Riders

I'm not sure this is the right place to post this, but does anyone have a spare front wheel plate for a ts125 knocking about?

Yes, but it's bare, no tube no tyre, has bearings ready to fit (after a clean and polish).. But it's fine otherwise. It fits all TS models and all es models with a 215 X 18 front wheel

If required I could take a photo of it.

I mean if you need a front wheel, I think you mean the L/h alloy flying saucer side bearing cover/hubcap and little rubber/foam washer. Don't have one of those.

That`ll be a "no" to him having a front wheel plate then Gerryman Ts125. Ha ha

If he showed one of us a photo with a arrow pointing at the bit he requires. That would be helpful. Rather than a guessing game Puffs

I knew what you meant!
I Googled "front wheel plate MZ ts125" and this came up, far too expensive in my opinion. - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MZ-TS125-150 ... HgQAvD_BwE

I think I have one actually- It's actually from a TS250 though- not sure they the same, - I think the fork width between 125 and 250 are different.... ? Can anyone confirm this??

All Mz Ts models with 160mm drum braked front end fits all models of Mz, unless you have a early model with narrower top fork legs. .
But the later front end, post 1976'ish do fit if you use the yolks..
Same for the Etz with drum brake front. And disk front end Etz. If it ain't bust why change.it?? And they never did

If this is what Meph is asking about, only have the bare wheel as I sold the bike last year (complete with Hubcap) with a much newer wheel, tyre, tube and rimtape combination. He asked back before it was sold. And I only ever had the one. But the front end does look a bit more smoother (not much more aerodynamic) as the styling was a bit barn door albeit functional.

I purchased my first TS in August 86 brand new, ran it for a year or two, and got a complete 77 TS 150 lux R r eg non runner for spares fixed that one (Same colour as the blue one above) the only difference between them was the front indicators where mounted on the side of the headlights.

Sold it in 89 to a fellow motorcycle courier's father as a run a round during winter.
Had plenty of spares for both, so we split them 70% to his father 30% to me.
Never used the black 86 Ts 125 much after that. As I had a company bike (Honda DX 450) and a Kawasaki Ar 125 ( turned that into a 180 cc by getting a Kh piston and fitting a multitude of bigger parts) and lost count of how many chains I stretched wheeling it, and was in process of getting a 77 R reg GS 750 back running again and needed some cash to spend on it.

Back in the late eighties people were giving their motorcycle projects to me, rather than scrapping them. I was glad too.
