I didnt have 1 of these but did have a 73 with a bunch of mods. It had a Mikuni carb, Koni shocks moved forward 3" and a 5 speed tranny. Ill try to dig up a pic of if I can find one. ....nothing sounded like a CZ when its running if youve never heard 1. Sounded like it could grenade at any moment...large aluminum fins magnifying every sound the inside were making...

 

that is a sweet bike. looks like it has a fair amount of rake, probably pretty stable at speed? i hear yea on those huuuge fins! hard to even describe the sound, awesome! but then again, every once in a while, i'll put some castor/bean oil in my lawn mower and pretend i'm back in the day. i can almost smell it

 

Yah the sound is memorizing if your old enough.. The CZ would turn but not as well as a Maico would....

doesnt everyone run a little bean oil in their 4 stroke lawn mowers? Ive been doing that for many years...in the beginning because its all i had a round...now its a cheap memory..

 

I used to ride with guys who had CZ,Maico,Bultaco and Hercules dirt bikes in the early 80s. I had a 74 Honda 250 elsinore 2 stroke,oil injection like this one.

 

Very cool TLC!

I had a friend who had the MT125..in about 6 mos he made it into a Marty Smith Replica...Red frame, tank, fenders, moved the shocks forward, FMF porcupine head, etc...

 

Can't forget about this antique. I had allot of memory's with this bike.......

 

That would be very cool to have to day...you still got it Bigdaddy660R?

I had a buddy who rode Huskys(over 20 years) until they were sold to the Italians...He rides a KTM now..

 

NO. I've seen some that have been restored at motorcycle swap meets I've been too.

 

Thats to bad...How long ago did you sell it? If you dont mind me asking....did you get into quads after that bike?

 

I bought it new in 1972, I was 17 then. I rode the living dog snot out of it till around 75, 76 and sold it. I got into street bikes on & off till a few years back. I just got into quads around 2001 and been having fun ever since........

I sure miss that Husqvarna though. I did ALLOT of desert racing in Cali Nevada AZ & Baja, Mexico.
