[yamaico]

Nice, very nice.

[tony27]

Very nice. To be used properly or more a working garage queen?
Always surprises me when I see them started so easily by turning the rear wheel by hand

[TTezza]

Hoony, yes

Earlier on the same day at Maitland




This was my other ride on the day

Would be a cool feeling riding at Maitland track where speed way first started in the world .
The eso sounds a bit like a tt500 with a open pipe , haven't seen the wheel start like that before , wounder if I can start the Tt 500 like that

Yes i was thinking the same Mick, that's hallowed turf alright !

as for the wheel start that's how you start them, except when you racing then its a push start. they fire easily after a few prime rocks like tezza showed. 

Tezza, how much different is the ESO to your Jawa 2 Valve (assuming that is what the other bike is, it looks like one with that case cover)?

[Mick D]

Alll of the above and well done Tezza

Yeah, pretty cool alright.

Time to wake up and go to work Mick

Hoony, Jawa is a long track motor with a two speed box, lot better gearing for the showground, with the ESO not geared up had to back off on the straights and squirt it in the corner where the Jawa just keeps winding out. Track was like a billiard table first ride out but D-Max Utes went out after us each time and chopped the place up more and more. History books say first recognised speedway racing in the world started here December 15 in 1923. Pretty special riding here, third year they have let us have a go.

We also had the 8/80 doing a few laps on the day
