In 1971, production began at the Wytwórnia Sprzętu Komunikacyjnego PZL-Świdnik of a motorcycle from the family of new, unified 125/175 class motorcycles designated as M21. The S-1Z3A Lux engine was installed in a new chassis. The motorcycle was given the designation M06 B3. Design work was led by mgr inż. Jerzy Rebajn, and the frame structure was developed by inż. Stanisław Czobot. One of the versions of the M06 B3 model was the WSK M06 Pic presented here.
It is a light touring motorcycle of the 125 cc class developed at the Wytwórnia Sprzętu Komunikacyjnego in Świdnik and intended for foreign markets.
It was based on the basic M06 B3 model produced in Świdnik from 1971. In order to make it more visually attractive, it was modified with components taken from a series of motorcycles named after birds and positioned as luxury items designed for younger consumers. Apart from the Pic, the plant also produced the Gil, Lelek and Bąk models.
Mass production began immediately after the development work ended, but the motorcycle’s poor performance and outdated design solutions resulted in little interest abroad, despite an attractive silhouette with many polished and chrome parts. About 100 units were built, many of which remained in Poland and were sold on the domestic market within the framework of “internal exports”.
