Got one of them NGK, want one like the above.

Tony not really sure ? the fram point on the rear look differant as its pivot is height and sprung, long tracks i have seen look more like a speedway frame with the lower swing arm pivot and a top  shock mount inot a rear sub frame with seat section.  Not really sure if there are any differanced.  but if i can identfy this type, thats what i want.

Well unless it looks like that  will be no chance. 

I figure at the hieght of your little sidecar, i 'll have to be more worried about how i keep it from dragging on the floor.

No that ones not the same either. 

I dont want a speedway frame with springs.  look closely at the rear end and where the mounts into the sub frame and the lower engine plates.  I will accept no substitues !!!

Jonesy wrote regarding the bike above-
This is a Jawa 892 Longtracker, first batch  of 40 were made in 1971 and sold through Barry Briggs in the U.K. The colour is wrong should be Blue and something is not right with the front engine plates, I would like to see a picture of the other side.

I believe below bike is Ivan Maugers 1970 Long Track Factory Jawa. The Bikes in his European managers Bar in Germany .

Front plates looks ok, like a normal 890 Speedway to me, front gusset etc and down tube on frame look like speedway flow on's.  the diff is that back section.  MAybe its a long stroke motor and that changed the look of it up at the front ?

ill try to find another angle.    I have seen some in the US and UK in pics over time so there out there for sure. but cant find decent pic right now.

Hey Freaky
This is the only shot I've got of a genuine Jawa Longtracker, it belongs to Ken Carrat from Canberra , he goes to Gilman for the Veteran Speedway meetings and a few of the other vintage meets.
