does anybody remember this bike??

ever since I was a kid I used to see it..
It used to make a lot of smoke though.. coz of it's mixed fuel (Gasoline + Oil) since it's a 2 stroke

made in Czech Republic...

That thing was so solid...it kept going for generations and generations... even after an accident, they would restore it and keep it going in again !!

to be honest... it was a main reason why I bought my SCR950 .. even though I bought mine with the Grey color
but that red SCR950 kind of looks like the JAWA

brought lots of memories...

Yes, rock solid and made in my home country, too! I almost bought one in 1970 but ended up with the pictured CZ 250cc scrambler instead.

In those days the East Germans were world leaders in two-stroke technology. The fascinating history of how the Japanese secretly acquired the know how is revealed in this book:
