Anybody familiar with the MUZ Silver Star?

One of the local lemon lots was sporting an unusual machine, a MUZ Silver Star. Kind of a neat bike, 500cc Rotax powered street thumper, physically on the small side, a bike I imagine would be a lot of fun but prolly not as an only bike. I did a google search and didn't find much info on this bike, at least not in english. So, any of you euro riders know anything about this ride? Not that I am seriously considering adding this to the toy box, not for no 27 Benjies, more just idle curiousity.

i think the retrospective column in Rider mag covered that bike within the last couple years. I will dig through the stack tommorow but I distinctly remember the write up.

I've seen one before, while visting the Aerostich factory in Duluth, MN. Think that it might have belonged to Andy Goldfine, Aerostich's Big Cheese (that's what one one the employees told me).

Neat looking bike. Retro Clubman look w/ reliable Rotax power. Kind of a German GB500!

If you look through the 'stich catalog the bike is used to display luggage I think.
