Motocycles in ČSSR and now

Motorcycles were in ČSSR very popular and in our country are popular now too. The types of motocycles that were made by us were: JAWA, CZ, PIONIER. The most of these motocycles are used tody too and never mind that they´re about 30 years old They´re used in villages the most.

In group of the best motocycles were these types of JAWA: JAWA 350, 250, 175, 150, PIONIER 21, CZ 150, 175. The only type of motocycle is now JAWA. The others factures and fabricks are now forbiden, sold or are together with JAWA.

JAWA is now trying to get on a market with a new models of it´s make and of course with a very little price, about 100 000 krounds a piece. But it´s very hard because it can´t be in opposite with the japaniese motocycles f.e.: Honda, Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha.

These fypes of motocycles are better in construction and of course they´re faster. The best saller is Honda. The most saller in our country is Honda type CBR 600 F4 for 275 000 pounds a piece. The other saller is Honda  CBR 900 RR Fireblade.

The prices of these types are as high as the prices of automobils. But there´s a lot of people who better give these money for motocycle no for a car, don´t lookin´ on a high risk of this motocycle and of course they don´t think they can dead if they´ll have and accident.
