Factory patina on the hubs rims and triples. must have been an optional extra back in the day.

Never ridden since new   so they have been ridden once or twice or along time since ridden.

The last 2 new CZ bikes in the world  for that year perhaps ??

interpretations  :)

NSW local call for some  :)

no paint off the tanks or frames, no scuff marks on the plastics. I reckon they've just been stored without any covers and have picked up an inch or two of dust.

If they are 1991 models, what on earth were they made to compete and be competitve against?

Were sold in decent numbers for years behind the iron curtain, apart from the crankcases & cylinders due to different transfer ports everything else fits the older models which is why CZ engine parts are so easy to get
They were sold more as a playbike in the west at a very cheap price, I've seen a US test of the day 400 done at the time

They were trying to sell them in the UK as a play bike in about 1993 as i remember , they were advertised as old stock then and were cheap .
Theres a few over here .
To say they are the last ones would be stretch i reckon , theres probably a few more in crates around the place still.

I wonder what they'll end up selling for, I've always liked the idea of the modern vintage bike, I'll put in a bid.  I wonder what age bracket they would be allowed to race in? Not that I'd race them if they are brand new ........ maybe?

They appear to be Late 1980s (like 1987-90) 513 (250cc) and 514 (400cc) models you can find them here http://66.84.0.143/~ahrmanwc/CZmx4a.htm

Someone was asking what they were worth on OzVMX Facebook page a few weeks back.  As a "what's it worth" post it got the normal response.  He was also told to put them on eBay.

Should be eligible for Evolution class.

Really they are something for a CZ collector to buy.

I thought I had the "last" NEW 1978 Montesa VB250 but there is another NEW 1978 VB250 in a Monty collection here in Australia! Big statement by the CZ seller.

There were a few of these CZ models in crates floating around years ago, Drakie had a 513 still in its crate for many years then around lat 90's/early 2000's had a 'uncrating' ceremony that was celebrated with much alcohol and burnt meat offerings while the assembly took place and then it was ridden around his backyard.
I had some photo's of this great mens ritual but can't find them at the moment.
Pretty sure he lost interest in it after he rode it and he moved it on but he still may have it.
