21 Motorcycles That All of Poland Ridden in 1977!
If you remember what stood outside your apartment building and by the barn back then, you have some of the most nostalgic memories of Polish motoring.
Today, faults are detected by a computer, and service is booked via an app. Back then, all diagnostics were done by ear, and repairs were done in the yard, with a wrench and a piece of wire, because the workshop was in another city and parts were scarce.
The Untold Story of Polish Motoring in 1977
We'll walk through the machines that stood at every stairwell and gate back then: the WSK 125, the most frequently used because it cost two and a half salaries when a small one cost twenty. The Romet Komar, the first vehicle in the lives of half this country, with pedals to help them up hills. The Jawa, the dream car, and the MZ, which cost almost twice as much as the largest Polish motorcycle. You'll see what drove people crazy about each one and why everyone remembers them with a smile.
This is a tribute to an era when machines broke down frequently, but in a way that the owner understood and could fix himself.
