MZ SFx1000

MZ has released details of an impressive new bike that takes the 1000SF 
as a base and layers on the style. 
The SFx is officially just a design study but it will almost certainly reach production by the end of the year.  The bike is based on the current 1000SF parallel twin but ditches the unusual styling of the SF for a more pared back aggressive look. The bike was designed by Jens vom Brauck who joined the company a year ago and has already put his touch on the MIG 125 and SM125 Gangsta.

MZ says Vom Brauck’s objective was to: 
"Create an ageless design, independent from the zeitgeist by doing without fashion gimmicks, to display the mechanic parts, to demonstrate toughness and longevity.
Although the SFx is based on the current MZ SuperFighter, it is much more than just an exercise. states designer Jens vom Brauck, talking about the latest study from Saxony. The SFx is a completely new interpretation of the Fighter topic incorporating the classic values of the MZ-brand: simplicity, robustness and being refreshingly different.” 
The reduction to the design essentials is at the same time an expression of the engineering concept: The SFx is meant to be a simple but mature bike, brute in its appearance, intense in its riding feeling, but very easy to handle, thanks to its modified steering geometry and the lower seating position.
