Verry good, N2O.
You gave the last bit in the identification of this bike. I have actually suspected it could be a kind of transitional model, at least I thought it was an early JU-4 engine. It has 6V/45W generator. Is it possible to fit the later 12V system without any or small modifications? Can I fit the electronic (JU-5?) system?
I have a long history with JAWA and CZ engines, and I have installed MZ-B (www.mz-b.de) electronic ignition in all of them. Verry good, a bit expensive but worth every penny. 12V/ 150W is verry good to have, especially if you have a sidecar with some extra lights.
28 HP! WOW, my Monark-JAWA 350cc only has 21 HP... I am verry excited to get this bike on the road. I suppose the power is needed for pulling the sidecar in a decent speed.
So, can anyone help me find a good used front fork? I have tried to contact some MC stores in Estonia before, but they have never answered. I think the best place to find what I need is a junkyard or someone who trades with old parts for old bikes.
I am in no hurry, really, but of course I would be glad to go forward with the restoration. My plan, or hopes, is to have it on the road this spring, ride it through the summer and take it apart and repaint it next winter.
Please write me on my personal e-mail if you have something to offer, or want to help me find what I need.
*Front fork complete or parts
*Headlamp crome ring
*Stearing brake knob
*Silencers, or silencer end caps; tip where to find replica silencers
*Footrest rubbers
*Handle rubber grips
*Carburator cover panels
* possibly more... are tyres expensive in Estonia?
Merry Christmass to you all!
Best regards
Anders
