I may not agree with what you have to say, but I'll defend to the death your right to say it.

A few months back I was at the local recycling center dropping off some unusable cycle parts in the scrap metal bin when a gentleman enquires about the parts.  I told him there are from some old vintage motorcycles I have.  He says, "I have an old bike leaning on the side of my house, it belongs to a friend who never came to pick it up".  He says, "I think it's an old German dirt bike." (Maico?) He gives me his friends phone number, so I can ask if he wants it anymore.  I write the number on a junk mail envelope I have in the truck.  The next day my wife cleans out the truck and throws away the envelope.  I have gone by the recycling center almost every weekend since and haven't seem he again.

Run an ad in the local paper ;)

A long shot but probably worth it.

Hows your wife's fingers? Healing? :) Still bleeding from the ears after the trirade? :P

Well the tank was indeed blue with a stripe, all painted in shit paint over a yellow tank CZ, The "osso" bit was a very sad bottom end beside it, Don't know to laugh or cry! I will just smile till I see the CZ and work out what model it is, from phone description it mostly seems to me to be like an early 175 Traily but it has a downswept exhaust? Eno or Drakey I may be after some info soon. Cheers Tim  :)               Of course I will smile it was all free. ;)
