NOS AFAIK

have owned the same model as yours from the same time. it came to me NOS with its paper tags and wrapping materials.

it was a flambouyant chartreuse, similar to "Legnano green"

at that time the U.S. Favorit agent, American Jawa Ltd, stocked it in only one size: 60cm c-t-t. this seemed a common practice for them where they would stock a particular model in only one size

my sense of the machine was that it was an entry level racing model similar in concept the to Peugeot PA10 and Gitane Interclub models of the same era

do not now recall its model designation unfortunately. sold it to a collector over thirty years back.
