Try the members gallery under recent images. The frame was in fact designed by the same man as designed the Ducati frame that fits most of the recent Dukes and it handles as well as my better half's Monster. (Her opinion not mine). The engine is a joy to use and listen to (had to mute it as it was setting off shop/car alarms). Vibration wise it is not noticable but then I was brought up on old brit iron.

Do not know who puts the MZ 1000 AS trailey together or the SFX brutale? but you can see both of them on U-Tube at MZ 1000 SFX soundmodulus. Great sound, good on-road video. The string also features shots of the AS in Sweden and at a rally in Germany. Got to go, just heard the bosses Duke coming home from work, must put the kettle on.

Can't resist sharing this while we're on the "twins" theme. Laverda 750s were a classic twin, and these are almost identical. We were both Jims, and our gal friends were both nam

Thank you. Looking at the picture it is interesting to note that the frame/chassis has now become a positive feature (on both machines) instead of something to hide away.

George,look at how similar the frame on my Aprilia Falco is compared to the MZ 1000

I have a feeling that the MZ1000 and the Falco share the same stylist in Peter Neumann. The "exposed truss" frame it certainly shares. I like the sentiment expressed on the billboard behind the machine! Your home?
