Awesome collection of bikes that I never heard of and many favorites. Thanks for sharing guys. Hope you had a great time time on your USA tour. Ride safe, take care. Cheers
A very interesting episode. 👍 I got to sit on a Birmingham Scott in Pride & Clark's showroom, Brixton, back in 1963. They were a very interesting machine, but I hadn't passed my test, so I was restricted to 250cc and the brand-new Jawa that I was buying there served me very well.
@@bikerdood1100 It was lighter and more powerful than a Yamaha RD400 of the same period. Would have been a fun ride. I had a 1979 RD400E and it was a very quick wheelie monster of a bike.
The Suzuki 4-cylinder 2 valve models weren't far behind the CX500 as courier favourites. Hand muffs, homemade screen and plastic throwover panners for the complete look.
I have really been enjoying this series, thank you.
Cool 😎
Nearly at the end now
Starting to run out of letters

Underrated bikes those Jawas
The 700s Silk is a stunning machine.
They were certainly very different
And extremely rare

This series is brilliant, would it be possible to do episodes each on one manufacturer the big ones anyway .
Will be doing quite soon

Well they were relatively inexpensive and tough
If going by production numbers simson suhl is the second largest
Interesting company
Often imported and sold alongside MZ in the Uk
