Hi. Through one of my internet searches, I came
across your website, with photo's of Jawa's from all over the world.
Just wanted to share pictures of this customized Jawa 639-2, 1998.

Following was done to get it looking like it is:
The former owner has changed some things. The handlebars were replaced by an
Enduro one which is 93 cm wide. The horns were taken away under the tank. A
power filter was placed behind the carb. The rear suspension was replaced by shorter and stiffer ones, it now feels like a
hard tale. Both buddy seats were lowered and in the passenger one, the
tail lights were placed. The rear mudguard was shortened. Small indicators are used to give
it a more fun bike look.

Here are a couple of
photos of my 1960 Jawa 250cc, Model 353/04. It’s a reasonably
rare one in that the tank logo has Jawa-NZ instead of the more
usual JAWA-CZ. This is because they were assembled in New Zealand
for a short period in the late 1950's to early 1960's. I bought it as
a complete wreck years ago, and just finished restoring it about
12 months ago. The trophies were won at the Ashburton Motorcycle
Show in November (The major bike show in the South Island, New
Zealand), where it won Best European Bike and Best Pre-1966 Bike.
Just proves you don’t have to own a large glamorous bike to win
prizes! I use it regularly, going to work and rallies and general weekend
rides and it has proved to be reliable, once I got an initial
electrical problem in the magdyno sorted out. John Benn (Christchurch, New Zealand).

At present, I am
working on a 1975 CZ 477 175cc which should be completed by
Summer 2005. Enjoy! Maureen

This motorbike started life
as a standard Jawa 350cc model 634 (1977 or thereabouts). The
owner came from South Wales and the bike kept evolving at each
annual rally until in the early 1980's it had a new engine
transplanted
from a Citroen 2CV. The gear lever came up between the tank and seat I
suspect that got moved eventually. Where the bike and owner are
now is a mystery but the hunt is on as it would be interesting to
see if it still exists. Where is this bike now?
