This 1979 MZ TS250 was last on the road in 1990. and my mate and I got it as part of a job lot last year. He decided it was too good to break up and put it back together instead. Pretty much all the paint and powder coating on the frame and panels is new and has not seen any road use; it's not a full resto or anything like that. just a nice smart job. New parts include air filter. inlet hose. chain. chain gaiters. horn. battery. throttle grip. mirror. fork seals. rear light lens. Many fasteners replaced with stainless during the build. Forks rebuilt with new oil. wiring "gone through" end to end with new terminals where needed. and all electrics work just fine. Starts easily. sounds good. ticks over nicely. Metzeler tyres.
This is NOT a full resto; original parts have been re-used wherever possible. the paint on the frame is functional rather than wonderful. the seat base is solid but tatty and the seat cover is just starting to go. There are marks and rust spots in the chrome in particular. but it's a good. solid example of a classic MZ that looks good and works well. I have the V5C. but there is NO T&T. because the bike isn't insured and therefore cannot be ridden to the MoT station. Bike has a couple of really nice touches. with a one-off side stand in the "normal" position (better than the standard MZ ones that fit to the rear wheel spindle) and full classic Craven luggage with all the correct brackets. in very nice used condition (no keys).
Bike is in Ashford Kent (M20 Junction 10). and will need to be taken away on a trailer or in a van as it has no MoT. Payment by cash on collection or bank transfer preferred. PayPal also accepted but we will need to discuss the fees beforehand. I cannot deliver. but happy to work with a courier if you want to send one to collect on your behalf. Any enquiries. please contact me on 07968 417381. Thanks. Richard eBay Turbo Lister
