Dave....I haven't been much taking notice so is the new name and Montesa obsession a secret signal that the Jawa's flown the coop and you're now a Montesa guy?

Hi Mark jawa is still in my shed, l have bought cz 360 twinport chambers for it, waiting on arrival, l cut my teeth on Montesa and yes l am a montesa man always have been, but l done own one, the 67 model montesa is the one l would like to have back. but it is in good keeping in QLD. only hope it may come home, l am happy with the bikes l have got. The jawa is not going anywhere, just trying to improve it.

I remember Gary O`brien rode the blue colour impala home from Yeo scramble meeting one year in the 60`s and on his way home he can off it and broke a bone in his shoulder or chest, later on he show me where the break was.
