Not enough time for the current car and bike projects, what’s a man going to do, get another of course... 1988 cz125, East German and not worked for ages, seems not that bad though, I’ll get it running and take it from there .

The bike is pretty well engineered, kind of 2cv style, to be kept going by farmers and peasants, mine has a better carb and has been 90% rewired, I think it will be fine.

Ummmm, CZs weren't from East Germany...
That one looks an awful lot like one of my old ones... an awful lot. Unfortunately I don't think I can remember the reg of it though.

Česká zbrojovka (ČZ a.s.) is a Czech company producing components for the automobile industry and former firearms manufacturer also known for making ČZ motorcycles. ČZ was established as a branch of the Škoda Works Armament in Strakonice, Czechoslovakia in September 1919.
I had one of these monsters with side cart. A great bike. Not fast but good fun.

Nice should be able to get it up and running for Rainford? Scotchpiper Bike meet was full of shiny stuff when we went so might not fit in, I would take it on car night.

It will come in handy even if you never use it
