The ŻAK moped is a slightly modified and lighter version of the RYS moped. By applying a higher horsepower engine, forgoing protective sheet metal and applying lighter mud flaps, we have achieved better performance without sacrificing the benefits of good wheel suspension.

The ŻAK also differs from the RYS by the possibility of adjusting the seat height.

The RYS moped is the most popular and economical means of communication. Small footprint, reduced weight, great maneuverability - these are some of its appreciable advantages, especially in urban traffic. Being very economical and easy to park, the RYS moped is the ideal type of vehicle for going to work or school, for excursions and even for tourism.

The good suspension of the wheels makes it possible to roll even on bad wheels, and the large enveloping mudguards preserve splashes.

MR-1 RYS Polsk moped

DEN POLSKA MOTORINDUSTRIN är ganska ung. I början av femtitalet deltog några polska motorcyklar för första gången i Motorsexdagars - men de imponerade knappast. Sedan dess har det emellertid gått framåt för polackerna.

Numera tillverkar de robusta och pålitliga motorcyklar och har även börjat en egen mopedtillverkning.

Mopeden på bilden intill ger en tydlig illustration av vad man lyckats åstadkomma på mopedfronten. Maskinen kallas MR-1 "Rys" och har en tvåtakts motor på 49,8 cc. Borrning och slaglängd är 38 resp 44 mm och vid ett kompressionsförhållande av 6,5:1 ger motorn 1,6 hk vid 5 000 r/m.

I Polen har man tydligen ingen hastighetsbegränsning för mopeder eftersom man uppger topphastig het till 50 km/h.

Motorn är tvåväxlad och "Rys" har teleskopgaffel fram samt svänggaffel bak.

Däckdimensionen är 25x2,125 och tanken rymmer 5,75 liter.

Maskinens vikt är 52 kg.
