The mention of American Jawa distributors in the Zebra tractor post jogged my memory. Any of you Jurassic Era old goats remember when the Czech made Jawa mopeds OWNED the US moped market? Do any of you remember when the Czech built CZ motorcycles were considered "state of the art" on the world wide motocross scene?

Remember when Suzuki dived into motocross with both feet with a Belgian rider named Rodger DeCoster?????? Remember when the movie, "On Any Sunday" took the motorcycle world by storm?
