Interesting bike for the CZ Junkie and a great pre 85 ride

I've got photos somewhere of that bike that I took at the 81 CZ World Championships at Glen Helen. The bike was brand new and as trick as all shit for back then. The only downer about using it for pre '85 today is the pre '75ish motor.

I would have thought if the suspension/chassis was good the motor would be secondary as long as it's reliable

I guess it comes down to how good a rider you are Paul....someone like Brad vanB would probably see it as a challenge but poor old Neville Nobody (no offence Nifty ;)) might be up against it competing on a level playing field against post '81 big bore race tackle. It's still a neat piece of engineering though.
