What the heck?

Found this in a skip , thought I would make the extremely bad financial decision of rebuilding it just to preserve its outstanding ugliness

Aah! I think that means you did not make a questionable choice.

Sought-after bikes for some.
Not me, I hasten to add. Basic Commie-era riding holds no attraction for me.

G'day Fellas.
I think the one GB "found" is an earlier model than the one Richard looked up. Roundish barrels and different head fining. A mate down the coast is into MZ's, I'll ask him.
Cheers
