Markie Says: “Eastern block copies of the German bmw WW2 army bikes”

IMZ 750 M72

It’s not all about Lambrettas you know!

Ive loads of interests – too many to list and they grow everyday.

This is in my collection because of my interests in army despatch riders and bikes from different countries around the world.

This is a Russian made 1956 IMZ M72 750cc based on the WW2 German BMW R71.

3rd one in my collection of similar looking bikes IMZ, KMZ and Dnepr.

Looks great in the photos but really needs a full or partial restoration, that’s my OCD for you.

I could work on these bikes everyday I love them, but there’s no money in it as they are so cheap and selling like hot cakes in the UK from a lot of our Polish friends.

I’m already working on sorting out whats going to make them faster and more reliable, easy to do but just takes time……

On show in our shop if you fancy calling in to have a look, it’s near the 1940s BMW M71 with sidecar, Zundapp KS750, and my all original 43 Ariel W/NG
