Fantastic little bike, what's performance on a little 50cc and bet they built like a tank, love the indicators on the handle bars

oh man i do love those trophy's... i WILL have one eventually... i missed a Trophy 250 with sidecar up in inverness last yr, went for about £1200... and when i bought my red cub, the day before i was offered 2 mid 70s CZ,s in decent nick for not much more than i payed for my cub. had to turn em down cos i knew i REALLY wanted a cub, just a bit more than i wanted a communist stroker. i like the fact these things like the cub were made to run on crap fuel, crap oil, and minimal maintenance. yet MZ invented the modern expansion chamber 2 stroke as we know it. walter kaadens was a genius just like sochiro honda. i doff my cap at both great men.
