1960 JAWA 656 sold for $550 at the 2023 Mecum Las Vegas Motorcycle Auction
oh for the love of french toast with maple syrup!!! I'd rather have this VERY cool bike than most of the bikes that sold for tens of thousands. not very costly or complicated to install electric bike FAT TIRE hub/wheel conversion kits onto small motorcycles/mopeds that would otherwise either be a parts bike or a complicated expensive restore. don't even need to remove the old non-functioning original motor. not a bike for open roads but same as a typical stupid looking modern electric bicycle. old bikes and parts that previously were limited in use and value, now a new life and new value. goofs will be jealous when you roll up all vintage style with yer old assed antique commie days motorcycle. now your vintage ride will have lasting and growing value. once people start to "get it" all the old vintage small motorcycles/mopeds and old parts for custom builds will be scooped up. logic I say. no, Y0U shut up.

Totally agree. I was doing other things and didn't see how little it sold for until it was too late.
