Jupiter, Florida

Here is for your consideration a beautifully restored 1972 Jawa 350 Californian. Jawa was built in former Czechoslovakia and in it's golden age, Jawa was dominating the motorcycle industry around the world. This is an example of Jawa's most successful model sold in the U.S.A. The famous Californian. This Jawa was found in the barn two years ago as a wreck with about 40% parts missing. She was disassembled and completely restored. By restoring, I mean frame up restoration with overhauled engine. Motorcycle received a new paintjob, which is in my opinion 7/10. All the parts that use to be chromed, were re-plated by triple plating method. Missing parts were sourced in the Czech Republic and originals were restored. Bike received new rims, spokes, tires and tubes. Seat plate was stripped and repainted, new upholstery was applied to the original seat foam base. New electrical installation, featuring an electronic and reliable VAPE ignition system. Motorcycle is equipped with battery, but motorcycle can run with out it ( since the VAPE magneto) Unit has 6V system. Fuel tank was sealed inside to prevent rust. Engine - completely disassembled, crank shaft rebuilt with new conrods installed. New pistons and rings coupled with re-bored cylinders. New seals and bearings were installed as well as a new clutch. Initially this motorcycle was equipped with a Jikov Carburetor, but for a better performance I installed a Jikov replica, with better performance in lower RPMs. This carburetor gives this bike the "edge", she rides like a dream. I rode her for about 80 miles to make sure that everything is working fine. She cruises effortlessly at 70 MPH with max speed I noted about 80-85 MPH. But did not ride at that speed for a long time ( just couple of minutes), since the engine is not yet fully broke in. New Hypoid 90 grade gear oil fill. This is a two stroke machine with a separate oil injection system. So you fill the gas tank with straight ( I recommend ethanol free) gas and there is an oil tank on the left side of the bike, which is filled with 2 stroke motor castor oil ( I recommend to keep using it). She starts right up on second kick, very reliable. Bike has a new speedometer, all new cables, rebuilt brakes and repacked wheel bearings. Front and rear shocks were rebuilt with new bushings and seals, with fresh fork oil fill. All rubber parts are new as well, including brand new tires. The taillight is a replica ( very good) of the original LUCAS unit, which was un-restorable, front headlight is the original BOSH, restored For pictures of the restoration and to see, what the bike looked like before the restoration, please visit my facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/Pavels-Restoration-427624467343978/photos/?tab=album&album_id=804390199667401 In conclusion, this motorcycle was restored the right way, I did not cut any corners, however it is an old motorcycle, which will probably require more maintenance and attention than brand new bikes with modern technology. If you are looking for a daily rider, this might not be the bike for you and you should buy yourself something Japanese. But, she is very unique motorcycle, that creates lots of attention everywhere I go. For 43 year old bike, she rides like a dream and for somebody, who is a Jawa enthusiast, or just looking for something unique and different, she might be the bike of choice. She could be also used for display, to represent the fabulous 70's motorcycling era. Price: I'm open to offers, but please keep in mind that to purchase this kind of motorcycle project, you will have to spend probably around $1500 and to get it restored, you are looking for another 6-7k. So please no lowballing. I spend a considerate amount of time and invested lot of $ to do it right. Please ask any questions before committing to buy, also ebayers with out any feedback - contact me before purchasing this motorcycle, I reserve to cancel your bid if you do not. Title: Since this motorcycle was a barn find, there is NO title!!! I will provide a Bill Of Sale. Ebay does not allow to place bike there with no title, so even it say "clear" - I DO NOT HAVE A TITLE FOR THIS BIKE!! Thank you for looking.

Northbrook, Illinois

1958 Jawa 500 OHC. This is perhaps the most coveted model of Jawa motorcycle. Apart from Jawa Supersport and various competition models, the 500 is a rare sight in Europe, and especially here in the US.If you are not familiar with this bike please read the article linked below.After buying this Jawa several years ago I quickly discovered that apart from the frame, engine and wheels not much else was original. The gas tank, fenders and tool boxes were Jawa Perak items. The engine, the most important part of this bike was fortunately complete but it needed a bit of work. The top end was rebuilt with new pistons and valves, the magneto replaced and new oil lines installed. While the parts for this rare bike are um… rare, they can be had if you know where to look or if you know someone who knows where to look. The rest of the restoration was carried out by Florida-based Jawa expert. He sourced the original as well as reproduction parts needed to bring this 500 to its former glory. While the bike looks fantastic it will need some additional engine tweaking. It seems that the timing will have to be dialed in and an oil leak (possibly from oil lines) addressed. Not being a mechanic, I won’t even attempt to resolve these issues myself. I’m letting go of this bike to finance restoration of another Czechoslovakian-made beauty: Tatra T600. The bike comes with Illinois title. For international buyers, please have your shipping/importing details sorted out before bidding. Here is what Robert Smith of Motorcycle Classics.com had to say about Jawa 500 in his December 2014 article: “[T]he 500’s ingenuity of design, quality of finish, and attention to detail was almost breathtaking, and certainly on par with BMW. Examples include the air filter neatly encased in a cutout in the oil tank, the throttle cable running inside the handlebars, the elegant headlight nacelle (…), the massive rear suspension plunger castings designed to prevent any “looseness” in the rear wheel, the inclusion of hydraulic dampers inside the plunger housings, and the discreet use of gold pinstriping. [T]he overall feel is one of quality and sophistication, reflecting a Jawa tradition that even their communist overlords couldn’t suppress.” You can see the engine running here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGLy-S4KF3U&feature=youtu.be You can read the article here: http://www.motorcycleclassics.com/more-classic-motorcycles/classic-jawa-motorcycles/jawa-500-zm0z14ndzkel.aspx?PageId=2
