I believe Jawa sold some motorcycles through Sears - the engine looks very familiar.

Looks great Tango. I always thought the old two strokes were pretty good machines. Simple and pretty easy to repair.

neat-o!  I like those "off-brands". They are seldom found in that condition.

Man you have the luck finding these sweet old scooters Tango. I know a guy that has a Benelli rebadged as a Wards I believe a 175cc. Nice patina but no rust or dents. He wants $1000.
