That is a weird one. A '77 model?
It has a cz look about it but yuk!

Pass me the bucket

you guys are a bit harsh, or maybe I have bad taste ;D
Apart from the funky numberplates, it's not that bad is it?

We may just be biased coz we own the real things ;)

And it opens the door to more spares ;)

Looks pretty good, just change the number plate colour. There are quite a few makers from Russia/china/inda that are making brand new old style bikes. There is a Chinese company making an old BMW copy sidecar that are all new but look really old styled. I know someone who imported one but recently died and never got to finish assembling it so sometime during 2011 i will have to do that.

mainline i am with you not to bad i own a yt400 cz i would own that if it came at the right price including shipping to sydney

Perhaps it's the Uzibechkhistaanni Peoples Engineering Company new release ::) and this is just Market Research to gauge the free market reaction, I for one would pay $999 delivered.
Do my eyes deceive me -- the rear shock springs look to be round wire at the bottom and flat wire at the top -- I've never seen that before.
The foot pegs would be nice on early CZ's, sort of retain the look/design but have the required foldability.
It would be interesting to know more about where it came from and were there any earlier models and any later models and is there any parts interchangeability and so on?

Pliz comrade, what for is blue wire ? ???
-
Its connected to the seat so when you sit on it , it blows up!
-
It looks like a carby bowl vent hose for creek crossings and stuff. Not sure about the blue colour though. Front end looks like it was meant to have a springer type fork like the old DKWs and such. Wheel-to-guard
fit looks odd. :-\

Makes you (well, me) realise two things about the original Czecko CZs:
1. By god they're ugly.
2. They were really well made compared to the Russian copy.

1. By god they're ugly. re; CZ's
thems fightin wurds Nathan >:( :D

This little factory, along the lines of BSA, is actually a little more famous for knocking these out...

Perhaps out of some kind of odd Stalinist respect for the manufacturer for services to the nation, they were regularly used as Russian ISDT
team bikes...eg,

Sounds like a bit of pot and kettle..

scroll down and check out the Lambretta rallymaste .... now that is a cool bike.

I do know from the horse mouth that a new twinport cz motocrosser is in production, l think that is a neat looking bike, that the russians have made. l have seen uglyer bikes than that here in Australia.
