Development history

Before 1995, MZ Motorrad only produced single-cylinder, small-displacement motorcycles and never produced multi-cylinder motorcycles with large displacements. After being taken over by Hong Leong Group of Malaysia, MZ Motorrad began its project to produce its own first superbike.

The prototype model of the 1000S was previewed during the Intermot 2000 in Germany and went into production in 2003. As a result of the overwhelming sales of the model, MZ also produced some variants of the 1000S such as MZ 1000SF naked bike and MZ 1000ST sports touring bike.

The award-winning 1000S "New Edge" design was created by Peter Naumann. As a result, the 1000S had once won the silver medal from International Design Forum. In addition, MZ regional factory in Shah Alam, Malaysia also used the 1000S design as the basis for their Mantizz underbone lineup.
