excuse my ignorance Firko but not being a Monty man I don't see an awful lot I overly like  :-\ the motor doesn't quite seem right..not a hybrid is it?? '74ish CZ380 in a Monty chassis?? The oil patch on the ground looks/says CZ ;)

You get the Kewpie doll Doc the Monty experts all missed it. It's got a CZ engine . Horrible waste of a good engine methinks. (It's not really my kind of Monty, I was just being a tad playful after a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc with lunch)

That's not true you know. I have a soft spot for Montesas. In truth,there aren't too many classic motocross bikes that I don't like, that's why I don't enter into the pleurile rubbishing of other peoples bikes like often happens on this forum. ;) I've owned a Monty or two over the years and fully understand why you are passionate about them. I also respect the guy who has the idea to put a CZ engine in his Monty because that's his vision and who am I to argue with that.

Not bad!! a very different neat hybrid,  Still looks like a Kawasaki H2 750 triple cound be shoe horned in ,and their kickstarter is much better than a CZ one................. :D
I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.
