Formed in 1919 in Czechoslovakia, CZ started with producing firearms before adding in bicycles and motorcycles in the late 1920s and early ’30s. In the 50s and 60s, CZ was at the top of its game. After World War II, it was the second largest manufacturer of motorcycles in Europe, plus it was dominating motocross competition worldwide.
Period advertisements for the 180 Enduro Sport indicate the bike’s powerplant as a 176.2cc single-cylinder, air-cooled, two-stroke capable of 13bhp at 6,000 RPM. It features a four speed gearbox, a hydraulic telescopic front fork with 160mm of travel, four way preload hydraulic rear suspension with 100mm of travel, and a 242lb dry weight.
This example is VIN: 02101 (2101 on title). The seller acquired it from a dealer in Maryland in February 2019 and states, “I just thought it was a cool piece of history and wanted to save it. It harkens back to the end of the cold war when Eastern Europe was coming out of communism, but their technology was still in the 40s. So I saved it. It’s just been on display in my shop. Started for the first time since then in this video. Its a heck of a conversation piece.”
The seller continues, “This is a Maryland title to VIN# 2101 and a brand “AMER”, which I assume is American Jawa. There are several other numbers on the bike. See photos. The VIN tag show frame no. 487.02101, where the 487 prefix is also the model number, but they still did not include the leading zero in the VIN on the title. It shows just four digits 2101 (not 02101). There is also a number stamped in the frame. 48702101. In 1994, production motorcycles would have 17 digits but even the stamped number is not 17 digits, and they were not registering production two-stroke road bikes. I do not know the story of the bike. Did they somehow title it by adding DOT equipment, was it a prototype from Jawa, or did someone just mess up the VIN? I cannot guarantee that this title its transferable and the titled owner passed away. I will give you the paperwork that I have (it’s an open title) and a bill of sale. Assume the title is non-transferable.”
True mileage unknown. The odometer shows 107 kilometers (66 miles).
Maintenance:
“When I got the bike it was nearly complete but non running. The top end was present but loose (not bolted on). The bore was scuffed badly. There was no piston, no head gasket or base gasket. After measuring the bore, I went with 58.75mm piston (Standard is 58mm) which I think is 3rd over in Jawa terms. New pin, pin bearing and clips. Millenium Technologies did the bore. (They broke a fin, which I repaired – you can’t see it). Cleaned and repaired carburetor including new float and needle from the Jawa shop, and brought it back to life in 2019. Then I drained the fuel and never rode it since. I did not flush or attempt to service the front disc brake, but you can still get those parts in Czechoslovakia.”
Modifications:
“I don’t know if the turn signals were added by a previous owner or it came that way. Like most of the bike, they are very crude.”
Inside of the tank:
The tires are aged out.
Cosmetic Blemishes: please see the album up top for all known cosmetic blemishes. Here is a selection:
“My dog was biting at the tailpipe when I started it.”

Please Note:
Florida law requires the payment of sales tax from all persons making purchases from businesses in Florida. This includes out of state residents purchasing motor vehicles in Florida from motor vehicle dealers.
There are two exceptions: (1) purchases made by licensed resellers/dealers with copies of the dealer’s license and tax certificate provided to us at the time of sale, or (2) where we consign and ship the motorcycle to the buyer (i.e interstate commerce). Dealer purchases will be reassigned to the named licensed dealer and not to any personal account.
In most cases and pursuant to existing interstate agreements, purchaser will receive credit for any taxes paid to Florida. For more information please see this Tax Information Publication (TIP) from the Florida Department of Revenue.
Florida further allows tax abatement, i.e. a reduced tax rate, where the purchaser completes Form DR-123 and provides a notarized copy of the same to the seller at the time of sale. In such cases, the tax may be reduced to the lesser of the Florida rate or the rate in the buyer’s home state, whichever is less.
We therefore will be collecting the Florida sales tax of 6% on all purchases except those by licensed dealers having provided current copies of the dealer license and tax resale certificate to us at time of sale, or on products shipped by us to the buyer in the buyer’s home state. We will apply or refund any tax abatement applicable for persons who have provided the completed Form DR-123 at time of sale. The abatement will be processed along with the paper and title work after the sale. Florida residents may further be subject to their county surtax, where applicable. This applies only to select counties where you might live, generally 0.5 to 1%.
We will process Florida title/tag for Florida residents or persons titling said vehicles for street use in Florida. This typically runs about $150-160 in Florida charges + sales tax for title transfers and registration of street bikes, less for OHV vehicles where customers require OHV titles and green stickers. We never charge extra dealer or bogus document fees.
We must strictly adhere to these policies. Feel free to call Bullpen Cycles [484-788-9550] with your questions. We’ll do our best to help.
