Bullshit , it was nothing to do with him , he rode CZ for at least as long as KTM if not longer. Nothing but respect from the whole community.

Watched him at Hawkstone park in the 70's, would have a Russian gaurd standing in the pits next to his Moskovich van and trailer. Such a cool guy with the red star on his helmet. later the Russians had a 52 seat coach with seats removed to travel in. They would take the handle bars off the bike to get through the rear door. Scrambling in the 70s was the best era of the sport.
