I had been gathering some momentum to get on with my Super Hawk Project and some slight progress towards an SL350 Project, but all has changed as of late yesterday afternoon. You see, I've got a mid 60's Jawa 250 (2-stroke) that I picked up on some time back and want to build in close resemblance of one that my Dad built in the early 60's. He took some misc Jawa parts of different year models, "Factory HOP-UP specs (with photos and measurements) and built a Screaming 250 that would blow Honda Scramblers away and give 500cc Triumphs headaches.
Now, the one I got hold of, had the piston stuck in the cylinder and the primary chain is broken and who knows what else. Yesterday, I found an exact same model Jawa 250 engine that is complete and is in running condition and managed to pick up on it by yesterday evening.
Kinda rough looking now, but here is the bike I have and then there is the engine I won. I don't have any other photos as of now and I don't presently have a way to put any more online, but will when I can.
