Hi Les,
I ran my MZ's on a full synthetic oil made by Silkolene so I never had an MZ seize although I did thash them around the IOM :-)
The OEM pistons in my BMW R65 are miles better than any after market ones although Mahler pistons are not bad when fitted in MZ's.
I love two strokes too. My most reliable engine was a Vespa 180. Very well made. That said I have ridden my VFR 800Fi at 130mph + the length of France in a day and at Calais it just purred away as if it had been down the paper shop and back. I love all bikes even Harleys hehe.
regards,
Alan
