On May well 14 2005 we celebrate the third Yearly Jawa/CZ/Yezdi Day. Here is my story. It was a heat afternoon, and I was making the most of the heat beside the Rideau Canal in Ottawa Ont. I concur helmets would not have saved them all ,but unquestionably some of themwould be the following these days. Lessons from these accidents have to berealized or they died in vain . I may possibly audio like I am preaching to you, and perhaps I am, but it could possiblybe the issue that saves you from what Roys family members and pals went as a result of.I had several Czech. It had been a repossession and had knowledgeable aide seizure. It had been abused. It was a terrific bicycle , I made use of to cruise at forty five-50mph and sometimes make one hundred twenty mile trips to the USA and back again-Minnesota. I recall with superb pride currently beingready to out drag-not by considerably- a friend's 85 cc Kawasaki. retail store at the time. They sold fifty cc scooters, CZ 125 cc/175cc Roadsters, 250 cc/350cc Jawa Roadsters, beneath the Eaton's brand name title of Street King from about 1965 to 1969 or so. I was riding close to the town and stopped at a website traffic mild, this would of been all over 1967 and I listened to a large revving, substantial performance 4 stroke twin, compared with anything at all I had previously noticed before. Anyhow he took off like a shot atextremely great revs, songs to the ears. Anyways I hope your visitors take pleasure in my memories. Eaton's foremost competitor was the Hudson's Bay Co., a dept. keep even now in enterprise which was established in 1670-yes 1670. Remarkable to be able to invest in these bikes at a Dept. shop..
