1972 Jawa Cz Motocross Unrestored Survivor Standard Bore Motor Storage For 25 Yr on 2040-parts.com
Jewett City, Connecticut, US
Up
for auction we have a extremely rare Jawa CZ Motocross racer...made in
Czechoslovakia......This bike sold new as a 1973 but the tag says 1972
so that is what we're calling it. This bike is what you call "A TRUE
SURVIVOR" I bought this bike new and it has been in storage in my
woodworking shop under a inch of sawdust for over 25 years...I only
wiped away some of the sawdust...(Great preservative)......Everything is original on this bike
even the tires....Motor is all original with original piston / Standard
bore...... If you are familiar with these CZs you know they were
just about the most powerful MX bike out there...with the 42 HP and twin
coils and plugs they pretty much dominated the Motocross circuit
throughout most of the early 70s.....When I put this bike in storage in about 1985 or 1986 I
drained out all the fuel from the tank and carb....every now and then I
would squirt some oil in the cylinder so everything is still nice and
free....In the
first few months when I bought the bike the tank started leaking so I
replaced both tank and fender with these plastic units.....Please see all photos............................. Would
consider trade for BMW 1950s- early 60s 500 or 600cc even in basket case condition..................................
Will
work with buyer to get this bike shipped where ever.................You

GM to shut down Saab
Fri, 18 Dec 2009General Motors will shut down Saab after the automaker wasn't able to conclude a deal to sell the brand to Spyker Cars, GM said on Friday. “Despite the best efforts of all involved, it has become very clear that the due diligence required to complete this complex transaction could not be executed in a reasonable time," GM Europe president Nick Reilly said in a statement. "In order to maintain operations, Saab needed a quick resolution.
Official: Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series
Fri, 09 Nov 2012The new Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series has been revealed ahead of going on sale in the Summer of 2013. The SLS Black Series gets the usual mix for a Mercedes Black Series model – more power and less weight – and uses the same 6.2 litre V8 as the regular SLS but with the wick turned up to 622 horses from the regular, but hardly wanting, 583 thanks to a new air intake, cams, boost tweaks and better cooling. The oily tweaks for more power – and some weight shedding (70kg) – means the SLS Black can get to 62mph in 3.6 seconds – 0.2 seconds quicker than the regular SLS – and top out at 196mph (due to the extra downforce).
