    That is crazy. Seems to follow the TM displacement offerings also. CZ doesn't have the name recognition that Husqvarna does here in the states, but it is probably better among middle-aged riders than TM is.

    Naw it's way different ....it's red :D. We have a 2011 TM 250 MX and haven't had to replace a single part; excellent bikes and at least this one has needed only minimum maintenance. We are still on the stock top end with at least 80 hrs now.

    I agree with John, the TM's are really bullet proof. My buddy has a '12 250EN and has beat it within an inch of its life. Hasn't replaced a major wear item yet. Nice bike, nice motor.

    Nobody wants to take the time to make a new bike these days, cheaper to re-brand them...

    No different than the 60's and 70's when companies routinely re branded Italian and Japanese bikes.

    Read into it (look around the company's web site) they are an official TM Racing dealer in Czech Republic and they put together a CZ tribute plastic/graphics package to install onto your TM Racing machine- Czech Pride type thing. It's not a re-branded type biz thing, it's simply a color re-plastic and graphic thing from an official OEM TM Racing dealer. Good find though.

    Everybody wants to be in the "motorcycle business" now, hardly anyone has a clue, nobody has a vision. Therefor, re-branding comes natural.
    Back in the days, people founded companies when they felt that they could make a difference, and add another spice to the soup.
    Nowadays it's no more about "making a differnce", it's all about "brand", especially when "gold diggers" are trying to "resurrect" ancient brand names.
