Synopsis

Author: Mick Walker. MZ owners and riders are a special band of motorcyclists; certainly on a par with those of any other marque. MZ's reputation has been built-up upon value for money for the road rider and success in motorcycle sport; notably road racing and long distance trials. The magic of MZ was largely due to the involvement of Dip. Ing. Walter Kaaden, who sadly passed away on 3rd March 1996, aged 76 years. To Kaaden must go the title of the world's greatest ever 2-stroke engineer. Of course, before MZ came DKW, an equally famous name, and really this book is the story of both these two great marques from Zschopau in Southern Saxony. The book also covers Simson and the new era with the Skorpion. Contents: DKW, IFA-post war revival, ES series, Six Days glory, Grand Prix Racing, ETS and TS series, Simson, Enter the ETZ, Road tests & The new era. 144 pages full colour.

About this title

Synopsis:

This book was born out of the knowledge that MZ owners and riders are a band of motorcyclists on a par with those of any other marque. MZ's reputation has been built-up upon "value for money" for the road rider and success in motorcycle sport; notably road racing and long distance trials.
