The MZ ES 250/2 Trophy in bits

Nearly done with the pictures of the bikes. Just the Trophy Sport after this one. This was part of a collection of three ES250/2's that Mark and Kevin picked up in a van on a long excursion out. It then got taken apart and various parts restored or replaced with new.

The frame has been repainted. The Petrol Cap has the ISDT winning years engraved into it.
Both swinging arms are present with steering column and suspension.
 The exhaust is brand new and the mudguards, side panels and centre stand have been repainted. There is an envelope with stickers in it.
 A selection of other parts including new brake pads, handlebar indicators, new speedo and two headlight shells.

The New speedometer. Not sure how it has done two miles in a box, but it does look like it has never left the box.

 The wheels.

This is one of 5 engines that could go intro the bike. However cannot find the original that is detailed on the log book.

 This picture shows that the carb is for the correct model (according to the manifold casting). The Carb casing is also present.
 A box containing, handlebars, chain gators, foot rests, pillion foot rests, headlight, handlebar cover, sidestanding, electrical parts and many other MZ goodies (!)
 This is the entire collection of parts minus the engine which is in the cellar.
