1969 CZ Model 980 Collectible Motorcycle

Cover: When European-style motocross was brought to the United States in the late sixties, two brands, Husqvarna and CZ, were used by the visiting champions of the Gran Prix circuit. The CZ riders, Joel Robert and Roger DeCoster, quickly developed a following throughout the country which helped make the brand popular. Our cover bike, a CZ model 980 was the company's first single pipe 250 cc model.
