Excellent TMJ Codger. I especially liked the bit where you forgot you had put oil in the cylinder head and we’re trying to start the bike with a wet spark plug. Classic TMJ. Now it’s all up and running don’t forget to send the video to Greta. She’ll Love It! 😂😂😂
@@CodgerBiker I've never smoked but my mate Dave Doom was a 20 a day man for 30 years. He decided to get fit so bought a cheap bicycle. To start with he would struggle up every hill puffing & panting then when he got to the top stop and have a fag! That's TMJ thinking for you long before TMJ's were ever invented.
When I was a lad I despised MZ and CZ bikes. They weren't as cool as my Yamaha 200 with electric start...... But now, I wish I had bought an MZ and kept it. It would make a lovely little classic to pobble about on.
Totally true. I bought mine, 1984 because I had no money but needed to get to work. It ran flawlessly for 6 years. When my friend, who stored it for 30 years, returned it to me, I saw it differently. Now I love the thing and will probably have it till I die. Time eh!?
Careful, it might be hard to give up. It took me 25 years to give up smoking cigarettes, but 40 years on I still have this MZ - and it smokes more than I ever did. 😉👍💨

It’s definitely from smokier times, I was a 20 a day man myself back then, more if I could afford it. A simpler world! 👍

It tended to do that. Mad addiction. I miss it, but not had one in 20 years. 👍

Just needs a good run out now bud and maybe us along for the ride 😁👌🏻
It's Sorn at the moment, but I did take it out last year. It's a bit limited on modern roads 👍
I need an MZ back in my life
Ha ha! A wish you might regret unless smoke is your thing! 👍
Love it I'm just getting into MZ love mines the same colour as yours but the big brother being the 250

Running like new 👌🏻
Wish I was! 😅
@@CodgerBiker Did the MZ not just receive the equivalent of a colonic irrigation? Give it a try and let us know how it makes you feel like new too! 😂
I'll ask SWMBO. She's got the hose out and I'd not have to ask twice I suspect 🤣👍
@@CodgerBiker Just remember to use a hose and not your jet washer! 😳
🤣
