I like the look of the engine (a twin port single I think Ian), but it's next to impossible to tell what the completed bike will look like from that lash up.  :o

Yeah, I really like it - the traditional 50's/60's Jawa look...

i like them as well but they look like they will have the same seat height as the 2T twin therefore a bit high for me..

An enthusiastic report - the Jawa comes out quite well.
