Default Yezdi - Auction

hallo all,

There was a grand auction held bythe Ideal Jawa Motor Company in the factory premises at Mysore (guys from bangalore must be aware), it seems they have sent out all the stock of spares for all models from yezdi clan, a guy from bangalore took the best deal, he has taken spares worth for 7 lakhs, and is selling around to people who require, and to top it all the auction had 3 new bikes, Yezdi CLII, Deluxe and 175cc i guess, these bikes were taken by the Yezdi family members. . . . the best company of all times coming to an end slowly, makes us especially feel very bad and sorry. . . . . but anyway the bike has no end. [8D]

Yezdi had great exhaust note. It is very sad to see that the company is selling off doods from their factory. They should have tried to start the production of the bike again. Yezdi is a great bike

Guy from blore picked up spares worth 7 lakhs??? I know one dealer in Mysore who did... I didnt know they had enough spares to supply ANOTHER guy from blore too!!! Oh, and do ya ppl know what the bastids, who were in charge of clearing the factory did to all the stuff they couldn't sell??? They BROKE everything into tiny bits and sold it to teh scrap metal yard!!! LOADS of engine cases, 350 bores, all kinds of plastic parts were among those destroyed!!!

The bikes which the family kept, actually they were a couple motocross bikes from CZ, a monster 1000cc bike, some of the, I believe, first production models of their bikes, the jawa, the model B, the classic, etc... Harris, the younger guy of the two 'marketing chaps' there, kept a couple 350s for himself... and of course, the mechanic who did all the assembly work for them, he got his pick of the loot too!!!

I found some unfinished bores inside the factory, still on the machines... Thought of picking up a couple, and getting it finished elsewhere, but the greedy bastids wanted me to pay them 500 bucks!!! These bores still had about three to four operations left on them, and there were many more pieces where the ports had still not been machined!!!

oh yeah, for those who think 500 bucks was still worth paying, I must mention that I had already picked up a bore-piston SET for round 800 bucks!!! So, an unfinished bore, without the piston, for 500 bucks didnt seem worthwhile to me, especially since I wouldnt really be needing it at all...
