                i had a mechanic who was a pro in yezdi...but im not sure if he knows about the jawa...will let you know...
                A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

                    U MAY HAVE A WINNER IN THE SPEEDO ..... IS IT IN MILES PER HOUR?!!!!!

                    Crashguard is original butterfly type .... rare find ... Silencers look of too ... front wheel is of some sort of a moped ... or maybe the jawa jet ... handlebars and Levers are not original ... rear shocks not original ... rear tail lamp not orig ...

                    Rear wheel brake drum is orig for post 1965 models

                    Hope u dint pay a lot of money for this bro ....

                    And even if it did ... it will give u loads of memories and experience when she is done up .... remember .. nothing can beat that ...

                      The speedo is in KMS
                      front wheel is provided by the previous owner but the rims & spokes rusted
                      handle bar , levers ,taillight some of the few items on the shopping list

                      silencers sourced out ( some aftermarket- eagle) ,
                      mufflers wanted too.the bike is with me.

                        The eagle silencers will not give u the correct exhaust sound ... also i dunno if eagle makes Jawa Silencers .... Yezdi and Jawa SIlencers are different .... Jawa ones are shorter ....

                            Hi Crank,

                            The bike doesn't looks to be in a good condition but then now that it is being worked on, the joy it would bring once it is complete will be just uncomparable. All the best with the restore. It sure needs quiet some parts and work, and I pray that you find as many originals as possible.

                            Btw, where are you and the bike located?
