    Think: you graduate vocational school and right away you're Stasi agent/employee?

    It is hard to believe in such a course of events.

    BTW, something useful. This is only vol.1 clip - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jdypzaMUdc , look on YT for more.

    No. I thought that after you have been recruited you must get good and proper training. I am sure Stasi trained its personnel.

    I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you.


    Forget about DDR. We are interested in MZ's. A few years ago I posted on a local miltary forum short text about MZs in the military service - http://www.mycity-military.com/Nebor...2.html#p838256

    This looks like very interesting article. Too bad it is not written in English.

    I have got work now. The salary is shit but work is good. I am a trainee working with youths who have various problems. I am giving guidance on game development and multimedia. Also I document with a camera for a publication every different "smithy" we have here, and we have like ten of them.

    So not complaining, but the current salary wont get me even the MZ yet...

    They say we don't have at the moment "difficult" or "challenging" youths. So I guess shock therapy is not yet needed

    I don't know exactly how much the man want of the MZ. But used MZ bikes can cost about 1000 to 2000 euro depending on the condition and exact model. This is unused bike so the price should be more than 2000 euro. Just before year 2000 when MZ were imported to Finland last time they cost about 3500 euro a new.

    I am planning to do a pilgrimage road trip to the MZ bike, and there ask the exact price :D

    Well, thanks. This is better than nothing, but I am going to start looking for another job sooner than later.

    In the UK we had an iconic brand of two stroke bike called "Greaves" (who would possibly name there brand Greaves these days) and they won a couple of of road /and dirt championships.But they looked like the dogs breakfast,,,no kidding style wise no hope...And they went bust cos they never sold enough bikes..MZ I think is or was in the same boat...They look really crap,worse then the greaves,,and I think that stigma stayed with them until the end..Some aspects of the bike I like,,,the chaincase for instance...but even so in my youth I would not have been seen dead on one... But and its a big but there is deigning inderviduals tastes and memories...,,,,,,, Saying all that ,towards the end they made a 1000 parallel twin that caught my eye....
